How to Get to Manila Ocean Park

LRT Line 1

Ride a train bound to LRT Line 1 UN Avenue Station. From the station going to Manila Ocean Park is literally a walk in the park as you need to walk through Rizal Park until you reach Quirino Grandstand crossing Roxas Blvd. The ocean park is just behind Quirino Grandstand.

LRT Line 2 - LRT Line 1

Ride a train from any LRT Line 2 station going to Recto Station. From the station walk towards LRT Line 1 Doroteo Jose Station via the LRT Line 1 - LRT Line 2 connecting bridge. Ride a LRT Line 1 train going southbound to UN Avenue Station. From there walk through Rizal Park until you reach Quirino Grandstand crossing Roxas Blvd.

MRT - LRT Line 1

Ride a MRT train bound to EDSA-Taft Station. From the station walk towards LRT Line 1 EDSA Station. Ride a northbound train going to UN Avenue Station. From the station just walk through Rizal Park until you reach and cross Roxas Blvd and walk pass through Quirino Grandstand and to Manila Ocean Park.

From Monumento, Blumentritt, Dimasalang, Sta. Cruz, or Quiapo

Ride a jeep with a signboard of Mabini. You can get off the jeep when you reach Round Table and continue walking Padre Burgos St. and crossing Roxas Blvd straight through Quirino Grandstand. You may also opt to get off at Maria Y Orosa St. and walk the rest of Rizal Park going towards Rizal’s Monument and cross Roxas Blvd to get to Quirino Grandstand wherein Manila Ocean Park is just behind. Walk from this route is closer than walking through Rizal Park from Taft Avenue.

From Paranaque or Pasay

Ride a bus, FX or jeep that will pass by Luneta where you’ll go down. Walk towards Rizal’s monument which is along Roxas Boulevard. Cross the street and walk until you reach Manila Ocean Park which is just behind Quirino Grandstand.

From Makati to Manila Ocean Park

The only bus that I know of that will pass Rizal Park along taft avenue is the PVP Liner going to Quiapo. These buses can be found along Ayala Avenue and Buendia near Pasong Tamo. Please note that don’t take the bus that says Quiapo via Nagtahan on its signboard. Alight the bus at Rizal Park and walk your way to Manila Ocean Park.
