    this made me literally cry, I spent so much of my time there and when the water ride tune on it brought back so many memories

    This was my childhood park and always will be I went on every ride and I was the last person there on the last day open
    I have seen videos from when my older sister (she ten years older than me ) was like 3 a was having fun and we live very near the park and my family is struggling with financial problems and pleasure island was always a privilege to go to and it was fairly cheaper than other theme parks so it was a day out and pleasure island will forever in my heart and will be missed

      Declan no, it didn’t technically go bankrupt , they weren’t earning enough money, neither had enough money, I believe Voltar caused a lot of the havoc in the last few years off operation, I believe it would have closed a few years later if it wasn’t for voltar

    One of the water rides was called the splash. It was a boat that was pulled up a steep slope, traversed about 15 metres then went down a steep ski jump like slope with a jump on the end. The boat left the jump and splashed it in the water. It opened in 93-94 and closed 1 or 2 years later due to back injuries.

    Pleasure Island just didn't invest enough. Most of the rides operating in 2016 were there from 1993, the park needed to add some major attractions, and that's why it closed :(

    Tristar was only at Pleasure Island from 1993-1994 after its time at Alton Towers from 1990-92. it was Relocated to Flamingo Land as Flamingo Star from 1995-2004 to make way for Velocity which resulted in Flamingo Star being relocated to Pleasurewood hills as Thunderstruck/tide traveller.

    I'm really sad that it closed... I spent a lot of my summer weekends there with friends when I was younger... one of the buildings inside pleasure island was recently set on fire, that also needed to be removed... no plans have yet been made for the land as far as I'm aware, but I do know and over 16 airsoft event will take place there in September time I think... so sad it's gone...

    Hang on i cannot remember Tristar being at Pleasure Island. It was however at these amusement parks and theme parks as Followed in this order late 80s to early 90s at Dreamland Margate as tristar, early 90s at Alton Towers as tristar and 1995-2004 at Flamingo Land as Flamingo Star and 2005-current Time at Pleasurewood hills as Tide traveller. whereever you got the information from you have been mislead. as i used to ride it at flamingoland the whole 9 years it was there.
