Sandcastle Waterpark in the UK (English Music Clip!)

on


Sandcastle Waterpark is an indoor waterpark in an 84-degree tropical climate located at South Beach in Blackpool, Lancashire


England. It opened in 1986 on the site of the former South Shore Open Air Baths as a joint public/private partnership.

Sandcastle Waterpark is also home to white knuckle slides like the world's longest indoor roller-coaster water slide, the Master Blaster, and the first vertical indoor drop slide Sidewinder.

Family attractions include the Ushi Gushi Action River, the Shimmering Shallows and the Typhoon Lagoon Wavepool.

For younger visitors there is a Caribbean Storm Treehouse which is an interactive adventure play area with a giant tipping coconut that cascades 600 gallons of water over unsuspecting guests. There are also a range of water cannons, mini slides and jets within the HMS Thundersplash and Fort Riptide areas.

Operation of the centre was taken back into Blackpool Council ownership in 2003.[citation needed] Reductions in costs and increases in visitor numbers and spending have since followed.[citation needed] A significant investment in new attractions costing £5.5M was also agreed, which was delivered in two phases, with the second opening in 2006 on time and on budget.[citation needed]

In 2012, the water park opened two new Aztec theme slides, one with a chamber called 'Aztec Falls',and a toboggan like slide called 'Montazooma.

In 2013, the Sea Breeze Spa opened. The Sea Breeze Spa is for age 18+ and has 7 different facilities including a sauna, steam room, ice feature, heated loungers, aromatherapy room, salt inhalation room and foot spas.

In 2015 Sandcastle Waterpark introduced a new VIP Tiki Cabana. This is available to hire for the day. It is a private area overlooking the waterpark, which features a hot-tub, dining area, lounge area with flat-screen TV, stocked fridge and safe.

In 2016, Sandcastle Waterpark celebrated its 30th birthday with a monthlong series of events involving a wide variety of local charities and community groups. On 26 June 2016 as part of these celebrations, Sandcastle Waterpark regained the world record for most riders down a waterslide in one hour. The previous record had stood to a Dutch Waterpark at 396 riders. Sandcastle Waterpark smashed this record with a new official world record of  529 riders.

MALDIVES DAY 1 | WORLD BIGGEST UNDERWATER RESTAURANT AT A 5 STAR RESORT

The Maldives is a fascinating country to travel to independently, not least because it’s only been possible to do so for the past five years. Now, guesthouses are springing up on local islands on a seemingly monthly basis, offering budget travellers an affordable way to explore the country. And, in many ways, travelling on a budget in the Maldives is far superior to staying in one of the luxury resorts. Each resort is built on its own island, isolating you from the rest of the country so you never get a chance to experience local life. Staying on the local islands has given me an insight into life in the Maldives that very few people have experienced so far. But things are changing rapidly. The number of guesthouses on some of the more popular islands are doubling each year as more and more travellers turn up in search of paradise on a budget. On one of the islands I visited, Dave and I were the only tourists — we had every beach to ourselves! I suspect this won’t be as commonp...
