Ocean Beach Pleasure Park unveils new attractions after £1.2 million investment

The owners have revealed that there are further investments planned in 2024, to add even more new rides.

 It is the wide range of entertainment options for all ages at Ocean Beach which has been led to it being nominated in the Best Seaside Park category at this year’s UK Theme Park Awards.

 New rides which will become a permanent fixture at the site include the Log Flume, Super Jumper and the Pirate Ship, with a number of others which will be in place for the summer months.

 They include the thrilling Meteorite, which has already taken up residence at the park, as well as King Swing.
