Ocean World Indoor Zone at 262 Hanchigol-gil, Hongcheon: Seasonal Guide

Facilities at 262 Hanchigol-gil, Seomyeon, Hongcheon-gun

Ocean World is located at 262 Hanchigol-gil, Seomyeon, Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, at 37.647701°N, 127.682412°E. It is described as a water park facility belonging to Vivaldi Park, and Ocean World's official website operates under the Sono Hotels & Resorts domain.

The official page displays Ocean World along with Vivaldi Park, Sono Felice Vivaldi Park, and Sono Felice Village Vivaldi Park. Therefore, when searching for the destination, checking “Vivaldi Park Bus-Only Parking Lot” together with “Ocean World,” rather than entering only “Ocean World,” makes it easier to find the public transportation drop-off point.

Planning separately for the 2026 low season and winter season

The 2026 low season runs from October 12 to December 4, while the winter season runs from December 5, 2026, to March 1, 2027. Since operating facilities and price lists may change when the season changes, choose your visit date first and then check the official visitor information and pricing and discount pages together.

According to the operating example shown on the official website for October 19, 2026, the indoor zone operates from 10:00 to 18:00. Ocean World admission is sold as an all-day pass, allowing use until the end of that day's operating hours; fixed closing days and the operating closing time could not be confirmed from the publicly available information alone.

Low-season indoor locker prices and the 36-month age standard

During the low season from October 12 to December 4, 2026, indoor locker prices are KRW 50,000 on weekdays and KRW 55,000 on weekends for adults and youths. The prices for children are KRW 40,000 on weekdays and KRW 45,000 on weekends.

Sauna prices during the same low season are KRW 25,000 for adults and youths and KRW 20,000 for children. Infants under 36 months can enter free of charge, but proof of age, such as a health insurance card or resident registration certificate, is required. Since it has been announced that outdoor lockers will not operate from October 12, 2026, visitors during this period should prepare on the assumption that they will use indoor lockers.

From Hongcheon Bus Terminal to the Vivaldi Park Bus-Only Parking Lot

Traveling by local bus from Hongcheon Bus Terminal to Vivaldi Park takes approximately 50 minutes one way. The officially listed fares are KRW 1,700 for adults, KRW 1,360 for youths, and KRW 850 for children. The boarding and drop-off locations are Hongcheon Bus Terminal and the Vivaldi Park Bus-Only Parking Lot.

Departing from Yangdeokwon Bus Stop takes approximately 25 minutes one way to Vivaldi Park, with a fare of KRW 1,400. Since the route operates between Yangdeokwon Bus Stop and the Vivaldi Park Bus-Only Parking Lot, this route is shorter if your itinerary gets you to Yangdeokwon before Hongcheon Bus Terminal. The available information does not provide the bus route number or service interval.

Route via Chuncheon Intercity Bus Terminal and Namchuncheon Station

Traveling from Chuncheon Intercity Bus Terminal to Vivaldi Park by intercity bus takes approximately 50 minutes one way. The listed fares are KRW 4,500 for adults, KRW 3,640 for youths, and KRW 2,700 for children.

The Chuncheon route continues to Vivaldi Park via Chuncheon Intercity Bus Terminal Stop, Namchuncheon Station, Gimyujeong Station, and Palbongsan. Since the official information does not include station exit numbers or walking times to the Ocean World entrance, plan to get off at the Vivaldi Park Bus-Only Parking Lot and travel to the facility, rather than treating it as a destination reached directly on foot from the train station.

For Seoul and the metropolitan area, checking seasonal shuttle reservations is essential

The Vivaldi Park paid shuttle bus operates only during the winter and summer seasons, and the operator is Busline. The official information explains that routes can be checked and reservations made on the operator's website.

The reservation inquiry phone number for the paid shuttle is 031-765-7965. The distance from Jamsil to Vivaldi Park is listed as approximately 77 km, or about one hour by car, so travelers departing from Seoul should compare shuttle and car departure times when planning their itinerary. Parking availability and parking fees could not be confirmed from the publicly available information.

Items to be sure to check on the official page before visiting

Ocean World's main phone number is 1588-4888, and the official website address is https://www.sonohotelsresorts.com/oceanworld/. The official site provides separate visitor information and pricing and discount pages, and operating hours are announced according to the date and season.

The official pricing and discount page lists seasonal admission fees and discount conditions. However, the materials reviewed did not include details about photography restrictions, controlled-access areas, cash or card payment restrictions, English-language guidance or audio guides, wheelchair or stroller accessibility, or recommended length of stay. Therefore, it is safest not to treat these items as confirmed information for travel planning.
