Chief attractions

Once you enter the park you are sure to be tempted to enjoy a ride. Besides the exciting Scenic Railway Roller Coaster there are lots of other rides to cater palpitating pleasure at every moment. Even children find ample scope of great attractions as there are various amusement arcades, ice cream and sweet shops. If you have time you can eat what you like in the cosy corner of the park. Initially just after the inauguration there were only two rides in the Pleasure Beach. Now there are countless ones ranging from the Segway Grand prix to Cups and Saucers especially made for the children. Amid all the thrilling rides there is of course another special attraction for the park visitors, the ferris wheel, popularly known as the Yarmouth Wheel.

Special one

Keeping aside the rides if you want to taste something special you have to wait for a year or two. ‘The Edge’, a multiplex comprising a cinema hall, hotel, bowling alley and obviously a casino within it is going to raise its head adjacent to the park to add colour to tinge the Pleasure Beach.

However there is free entry to the park you need to pay for the rides which is between £13 – £25 for unlimited rides for the day priced depending on childrens ages. Opening times vary and depend also on the weather. There is a car park which is free if you buy a ride ticket.
