    This is a sea side boulevard with lots of activities for kids and youngsters of all ages. A nice place to walk around and enjoy the ambience and all attractions. A trendy place that attracts young people and families with kids.

    With the pandemic going on, the guards and crew are vigilant in ensuring that everyone follows safety protocols. Entering the park is well controlled, need to present ID and vaccination card. It sad that about 50% of restaurants establishments are closed due to the pandemic but the rest still operates. Most facilities and recreation rides are open. Closing time for now is limited only until 9:30pm. The park is well maintained and clean, trash bin are placed in a lot of the area. I hope people will have the discipline to keep that way. The Manila Bay clean up is also well done, the previous smell of the bay is almost gone. The rehabilitation of the bay seems to doing well. It is a great area to walk, breathe and escape from all the negativity happening around.

    This is my first time visiting MOA after four years. A gentle reminder for visitors: do not forget to bring your vaccine cars. Wear your mask and enjoy the view. Perfect for temporary shifting your mood amidst the uncertainties of this pandemic ❤️. MOA's eye and other amenities are open. When I went here, there were no "surge" of people early in the afternoon, however, people started gathering around 5:30 pm (because of lights, I guess?). Minors are allowed provided that they are vaccinated. On my observation, majority of visitors are circle of friends and significant others. Wear your mask, practice social distancing, stay safe and have a safe trip!

    It's just a huge mall with pricey branded clothes. BUT I REALLY ENJOY HANGING OUT AT BY THE BAY especially at night for the wind is cool, rides are also available. affordable foods are available here. Seeing the sunset 'feels' is just really amazing. ♿✔️ Wheelchair accessible here.

    This is my go-to place when I want to enjoy the serenity of the sea at night. There are a lot of people in the area, especially during sunset. However, you cannot discount the fact that it is an ideal park for family gathering or spending 'me' time. Children and adults will also enjoy the adventure rides with less expensive entrance fees. If you want silence and less people, I recommend you go there at around 8:00 in the evening.

    Generally, SM By the Bay caters the amusement parks in addition to baywalk. Taken last Feb 24, 2018, two years before 2020 Covid19 pandemic, an annual international pyrotechnic festival was held, which is a fireworks from a competing countries (USA v Germany). A VIP ticket amounting to P1,800 will provide you unlimited buffet and a seats, yet the VIP area is still crowded.

    Friends night out? Family get together? Bonding with yourself?or just reminiscing old memories...yes..this place gives you the vibe to connect reconnect and rebuild relationships memories and partnership. I remember the boat ride ,sumptous foods, spectacular sunset and the jive (yeah!!food music and booze altogether) plus the all time family rides...it's a wonderful feeling to be out and enjoying the "norms" again, however, we have to bear in mind that we are not yet free from the looming threat of the "virus". So, get those mask on those distances measuring and yeah the overcrowding..Let's enjoy this place with all the safety precautions ahead..minus the fireworks on Saturday?still I'll give this place a 10 for a budget and economical spur of the moment getaway from our busy life...Ciao!!!

    I went here last night, To witness the beautiful Sunset, And I was not disappointed. I witness how beautiful the sunset is, It is Friday that's why there us so many people, Anyway kids are allowed only at the seaside area, But make sure for your safety and always have social distancing from crowded areas.

    A good spot to chill with your friends or exercise those legs by walking along the baywalk. Lits of restos to choose from should you get hungry from all that walking! Just keep a safe distance from other people, wear your face mask and shield and most importantly, always sanitize your hands.

    This is a nice combination of bay board walk amusement park, as long as you do not expect at full amusement park with giant rollercasters, It has a lot to offer to kids in nice atmosphere. Highly recommended is also the ferris wheel, that gives an excellent view of the area.

  • 5/5 Shinysol1 R. 2 months ago on Google • 270 reviews New
    Just went to the amusement park. It was awesome to see how many parents and kids were put even as midnight approached. Merry go round still was functional and there are many food stalls, coffee it's really nice. Live music was playing nearby.

  • 5/5 Ferlin B. 6 months ago on Google • 198 reviews
    This is an amusement park across from the Mall of Asia. There are several right here for young children as well as a couple of more adventurous rides. They have a electric scooters for one or two passengers available. There are a variety of places to eat and get coffee and other beverages. There are also a couple of areas of artificial turf for children to play on.

  • 3/5 Vanie T. 6 months ago on Google • 130 reviews
    I do not have any complaints about the rides and other stuff here. But, the staff at the ticket booth was so RUDE. I don't know is he is a gay or a real woman, however that staff could have approached me nicer when I bought tickets. I didn't fall in line because there were no other people buying at that time. Please, tell your staff to be patient and respectful to your guests/customers ALL THE TIME.

  • 5/5 Jay K. 2 months ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    If you're looking for a fun activity for a couples on the weekend, this is highly recommended. Lots of restaurants to choose from, with exciting rides and a fun romantic atmosphere by the bay. Best time to go is on Saturday nights.

  • 5/5 Ann M. 4 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    I highly recommend this place if you wanted to have a pamper time with your family, friends, or just with your own self. There are a lot of fun activities and good foods to eat at the seaside plus, you'll get to see the sunset by 4 pm onwards.

  • 4/5 Orange J. 1 year ago on Google
    It's nice that they finally offered boating experience. But uhm. It's night time so you really can see stuff around you as you ride. The bay also doesn't stink anymore. So kudos SM. The sides where you can sit are also clean. Love also that they have different rides available giving lots of options to choose from when you have fun. Suggestion: build a rink for skaters/bikers so we can promote this kind of community around the metro. Maybe through accidents coming from this amenity it'll open an opportunity for you guys to build SM HOSPITAL. So that the whole MOA grounds is like a real life SIM CITY only called as SM CITY!!! 🤭🤭

  • 4/5 Mary R. 5 months ago on Google
    Perfect for long walks, cute photos, and just hanging out. Plenty of options for amusement rides as well, but lines could get long. Feels stuffy when there are a lot of people.

  • 5/5 Steven C. 1 year ago on Google
    It was fun. Riding the attractions and seeing the view from the MOA Eye is nice. Too bad I didn't get to ride the Dream Catcher because of my weak stomach but overall, it's a nice experience.

  • 5/5 Marian A. 1 year ago on Google
    Yey!It was very fun in here we always go at the seaside and my children loves it very much. They love playing,biking, and even going to the rides. We keep on coming back here at SM by the Bay. The food also was good enough,more food stalls and attracting places. Instagramable ang place. You should visit here at SM by the Bay. Highly recommended. Thank you.

  • 5/5 Neri P. 5 months ago on Google
    A place which is free of every noise, And can't be expressed by a phrase, A place that resembles the paradise, A place underneath those blue skies, A place where the doves bring peace, A place full of flowers 'n' flying bees, A place with a cool breeze of the trees. A place where waves cross the ocean, Leaving the coast beautiful and clean, A place where everybody is so mean, A place with neither maize nor bean, A place where creature's are spelaean, A place where all mammals won't wean, A place where everybody sings a paean. A place without any road or an airport, Therefore no need of having a passport, A place where I can comfortably teleport, A place full of leisure and more comfort, A place where everybody is a real expert, A place where the ocean meet the desert, There's not a place better than her heart.

  • 5/5 Sheryl G. 5 months ago on Google
    The place is great! Lots of people walking. Many sitting on the Bayside to witness the sunset. The food is affordable. Rides are exciting.

  • 5/5 mira m. 1 year ago on Google
    Full of fun rides and crowded with people. This place is good for families or with a group of friends who want to relax and have fun together.

  • 5/5 camilo m. 1 year ago on Google
    Just wandered into it while walking around on a Thursdayevening. Was able to ride the ferris-wheel, get something to eat, and sit on the concrete wall by the water to relax a little. There are plenty of food options and a few festival games and rides. It's nice eveif you just walk down around and than sit by the water.

  • 5/5 Rhiva C. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything is slowly returning back to normal. The place and view is nice when you want to have some alone time with yourself. Nakakarelax maglakad along the seaside.💜

  • 5/5 April V. 10 months ago on Google
    It's a nice place to spend the day with your family, and friends, or even go on a date with your special someone. There are a lot of fun activities to do, rides to enjoy, and restaurants to eat out. You can also stroll around during sunset and capture photographs to remember the special moment! PS: You can book your tickets on Klook for a Ride-All-You-Can on SM by the BAY amusement facilities.

  • 5/5 Thedem A. 3 years ago on Google
    This place offers a great sunset view. I hope that the management maintain the cleanliness of the area.

  • 5/5 Dave G. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of restaurants and of course a great view of the bay and sunset. Also rides and Ferris wheel. The seawall is quite high so the view from most of the restaurants is blocked. Busy in the center so worth a walk to the north end if you like it less crowded

  • 5/5 edward c. 1 year ago on Google
    An open air public park by the seaside just across Seaside Boulevard located at the back of SM Mall of Asia. Lots of resto, bar and fastfood to choose from. Crowded during night time and holidays. Great family bonding area with side recreational activities and rides.

  • 5/5 Mozza P. 4 months ago on Google
    The best napoletana pizza in a fastfood set up because of quality authentic ingredients. Value for money

  • 5/5 Ted T. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely a nice place to visit with your lover or family. Very romantic and lots of things to do. Best time to visit is when the sun goes down.

  • 5/5 CHANDRA M. 6 months ago on Google
    Experience of a lifetime. Best visited late afternoon through night. Romantic place for love birds. A bit crowded though.

  • 5/5 Mark Lister B. 1 year ago on Google
    We had lunch and then decided to take advantage of the overcast skies and bearable temperature by going for a stroll and taking in the sights. There are bike rentals available in the area for adults and children. Stalls such as the spring toss and the bottle lift put players' skill and luck to the test for the chance to win prizes.Unfortunately, we didn’t have any luck! 😂😂😂 The place is fantastic, and we all have a great time!

  • 5/5 Mark M. 3 years ago on Google
    Less rides are available nowadays but it is still a great place to chill and have some fun. I love the "carnival" vibes they established around the area. We missed the days where PIPC is still held here; it is always massive!

  • 5/5 Chris B. 3 years ago on Google
    I love the place and view. Its so very beautiful place

  • 5/5 Karen “Karenita86” G. 4 years ago on Google
    Perfect place to walk ,jog,run in the morning.. It is more nice to see and feel the air from water than the vehicles from the roads. There a lot of people also to come for outdoor sports.. If night time the night life is alive,you can have your whiskey or any wine you want.. Well they have PADs also open until 4am I guess.you will enjoy your bottomless mojito or light beer along the Bay..or you can have your Sunset 🤩 it is a romantic place then. In two hours completed my 10k steps goal🙈😊

  • 4/5 evelyn g. 2 years ago on Google
    Quiet n peaceful place during pandemics,hope more adults n Children will be allowed to roam around d bay side

  • 5/5 Jiyoung 2 years ago on Google
    This was a fantastic place for a great adventure. You should visit this place with your friends, family and love ones. A perfect place to unwind or go for a picnic. Sunset here is the best view to experience.

  • 5/5 Johnwin S. 2 years ago on Google
    The sunsets view from this place was mesmerizingly amazing, after walking to and fro to captured every angle of the coastal sea waters, different kind of foods awaiting, and beverages of each kind, and a public restroom if you need to unload the waste, secuirty Guard on duty checking standard health protocol oftentimes.

  • 5/5 Japeth G. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place if you want a relaxing park to take your family. Games, playgrounds, food. But because of the pandemic, guards are ordered to not let kids 18y/o below to enter the premises. Try again next time? Also if you are alone and looking for a place to breathe. You know, plug those ear pieces play some music and let the time pass, disconnecting yourself to the people on the park. Yeah. It's great. Just keep the physical distancing and mask in mind. Location: Great Ambiance: Great Games & rides: Good Food & drinks: Great (lots of choices)

  • 5/5 saycy E. 2 years ago on Google
    It is so refreshing to just sit and relax after a busy day 😊

  • 5/5 GOWANDER 0. 2 years ago on Google
    Sm by the bay is a nice place to bond with your friends but not now as we are still in pandemic..seaside is full of people now or maybe they will be stricter again becoz of delta variant..but you can still come early to see sunset and try like e bike..there is a place for dogs here too .

  • 5/5 Liza 3 years ago on Google
    Pros Sunset viewing 2 convenient bathrooms Food around the area The area is great for running/walking Police and security are walking around the area Walkways to get to the mall For fun: Ferris 🎡, pirate ship, dream twister and etc Cons During Saturday, Sunday or holidays crowded Bathrooms are often busy and no privacy Smelly on the north side, where the river arrives at the ocean Pavement has big cracks where it's easy to roll an ankle No social distancing (pandemic time)

  • 5/5 Addai Darko A. 2 years ago on Google
    Varieties of activities and spacious environment, though crowded with a lot of people during the holidays season.

  • 5/5 Eks B. 2 years ago on Google
    There's a jam pack people when sunset comes so if you want to go there, 2 hours before sunset so you can still go inside, childrens are still not allowed inside the rides area, but there some area that kids are allowed

  • 5/5 Jed Lazaro S. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is Great

  • 5/5 Jane G. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Doods A. 2 years ago on Google
    I like the way they organized the bay area. Even with people flocking in, security are all hands on deck to ensure peace and order.

  • 5/5 Ami H. 2 years ago on Google
    Better go in weekdays because there's a lot of people in weekends. If you want to enjoy the place go early because there is also an entrance. A good place to hang out by friends and family.. Will definetly go back again and enjoy.. 💕

  • 5/5 Lance Jeremiah B. 2 years ago on Google
    Honestly, this place is beautiful in the afternoon or sunset and you can take beautiful photos and post them on your myday on Facebook. It's nice to stay here until night.

  • 5/5 archie l. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place to be specially with someone you love or with family these place would be very pleasant if it weren't for some strict health protocols,..I enjoyed the sunset with my loving partner in life we rented a electric scooter Wich was great...

  • 2/5 Lee N. 2 years ago on Google
    Showing signs of neglect due to the pandemic, what used to be a nice place to hang out now feels crowded and decrepit. Where there used to be open spaces for people to unwind and have fun, they've been replaced by closed and unkempt shops. SM MoA is now surrounded by buildings from all sides with barely any greenery. It has lost its charms.

  • 5/5 Patrick Joshua S. 2 years ago on Google
    Fun outdoor place with lots of food and activity selections

  • 5/5 KicksOut P. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a very very nice place for family bonding, you can create special memories with your kids and love ones. The area is neat and well maintained, with full of guards om the perimeter and roving patrol to check the safety of everybody. Will definitely go back on our free time, see you all there 😊

  • 3/5 Jay-ar B. 1 year ago on Google
    I don't enjoy the hot dry air in this area. I thought this is going to be refreshing since it is by the beach but to my surprise you can really feel the stickiness and polluted environment. The SM MOA itself is great since it's big and has huge selection of store for food, clothes, shoes, etc. Perfect for shopping. They also have rides here in SM by the bay so kids can enjoy here. There's a liquor area for adult.

  • 5/5 xyza f. 2 years ago on Google
    These are the photos I took today. There are a lot of people since its the weekend but if you go here on weekdays it is less crowded. This place is famous for its ferris wheel overlooking the sea and if you ride it on at least 5:30 pm u might be able to see the sun setting. Going inside is completely free, its just the ride and other activities that you need to pay for.

  • 5/5 christian c. 1 year ago on Google
    SM by the BAY is very pleasing location specially to those lovers out there, because the scenery of the coastal bay and the sea and add all the restaurant and bars you will find. Also it is child friendly they have rides for kids and adults also. Just make sure to have a budget when you visit this place. They offer parkings if you have cars or motorcycle.

  • 5/5 Josephine B. 1 year ago on Google
    My daughter & her friends tried the MOA Eye and they had a great time. We had fun walking around and sitting at the bayside while enjoying the breeze. Lots of food stalls, a few rides and some carnival games. Nice place to visit especially at night when everything is open.

  • 4/5 Dylin Chett C. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    As much as I miss the old Sm Moa, but that's how it is needed to renovate and make more room. And they're doing something on the sea side that looks like they are building an extension for the mall. But i love the sky garden on the 4th floor by the sea side.
