What happens if it rains at blackpool pleasure beach

It was busy despite the incoming rain, but the Nickelodeon characters were out dancing and singing to entertain while we waiting. There really is something for everyone. Nickelodeon land with rides for tots through to older children like N who want smaller roller coasters.

Right through to The Big Dipper which is the oldest and one of the only wooden roller coasters left, and the Big One, Valhalla and Icon. The train journey was fun, and a great way to see the park, as it takes you around and under some of the biggest roller coasters.

Along with some very random dinosaurs and zoo animal models. N also wanted to go on the Blue Flyer, a smaller roller coaster. He enjoyed it, but by then the weather had got him down and he was keen to head home. By 11am when most rides were open, the queues were getting longer and the park busier. What I found really helpful is the detail on the rides online. Each ride is shown with height restrictions and rules over whether shorter children can go on with adults, or if they had to be over the height.

Getting out of the park was a little confusing as we were leaving when lots were still arriving. Ripleys Believe it or Not is just along on the outer side of Blackpool Pleasure Beach so we decided to pop in for an hour or so before heading home.

Robert Ripley travelled the world meeting different people and discovering cultures and artefacts, anything that was a bit weird, and included them in his books. From stories of unusual people, to 2 headed animals, to magic tricks, weird phrases and oriental puzzles. But N was happy enough looking at shrunken tribal heads, and other weird beings. Having just been to the Puzzling Place in Keswick earlier in the week we were pleased to see more illusions and try out the puzzles.
