Based on balanced-score card, this paper constructs an evaluation system of water ecological civilization. Specially, the system consists of four dimensions including water ecological performance, water public service, water administration service, and study & growth. On this basis, we employ information entropy theory to judge the weights of the evaluation system and set-pair method to assess the level of water ecological civilization of cities in the Pearl River Delta. The results demonstrate that, firstly, there are significant differences of water ecological civilization development among the Pearl River Delta cities. Secondly, Shenzhen earns the highest scores while Jiangmen scores the lowest. Thirdly, the key of improving water eco-civilization is not restricting economic development, but maintaining a balanced promotion among water ecological performance, water public service, water administration procedure, and learning & growth.
