A water dispensing apparatus includes a dispensing body including a nozzle, a control valve including a water sealing member and a pusher member, an actuation member coupled to the pusher member, and a control unit to drive the control valve to rotate. When the control valve is driven to rotate, the pusher member is driven to move correspondingly to reciprocatingly move the actuation member at different locations of the nozzle not only for switching on-and-off the control valve but also for controllably shifting different water spraying patterns of the nozzle. Therefore, is able to easily control different operations of the water dispensing apparatus in one single continuous action of the control unit.
