Good Points

Has all day wrist bands.
There are plenty of big rides and smaller rides for the kids.
The park is right next to the beach and promenade (ideal for a stroll).
Reasonably priced food outlets, plus a bar.
A great value day out for everyone!

Bad Points

None.

General Comments

Me and my partner have been to Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach many times, and we both highly rate it. We are not surprised that it comes 2nd after Blackpool. There is plenty to do while in the park. All of the rides are great. In fact, the rollercoaster there was my very first coaster ride in my life, and I loved it (I originally come from Cornwall, and there are no pleasure beaches there). I also love the 'Sky drop', 'The twisters' and 'Disko'. The new 'Evolution' ride was quite intense, as it seemed to move more slowly while being upside down, and you could feel the blood rush to the head. There are plenty of stalls to win prizes, plus we love the 'Fun house'. It is quite disorientating, and the 'Haunted house', plus the 'Snails'. Of all the log flume rides we have been on, I can honestly say the 'Log flume' at Yarmouth Pleasure Beach is the best ever, especially the very last big drop. I have been told that Yarmouth Pleasure Beach used to be 2 big parks and has shrunk over the years, and there was once a separate park for the little ones called 'Kiddieland', and the other park was for the older riders. Well, to me, I think that it is worth a great day out now, but it could do with closing a little later in the day.
