A water-based ink set for ink-jet recording is provided which is capable of: reducing graininess in a low-density printed part in a cyan direction without reducing the color reproduction range in the cyan direction in a high-density printed part; extending the color reproduction range in a blue direction and/or a green direction; improving the vividness of the blue color and/or the green color; and improving gas resistance in a printed part in the cyan direction. The water-based ink set for ink-jet recording includes a cyan pigment ink employing pigment as a coloring agent and a blue dye ink employing dye as a coloring agent and/or a green dye ink employing dye as a coloring agent. The cyan pigment ink is a light cyan pigment ink having a lightness (L*) of about 60 or more in the L*a*b* colorimetric system.
