LAGOON AMUSEMENT PARK

One of their newest rides, Cannibal, lifts riders 208 feet and plunges them into a 116° beyond-vertical free-fall into an underground tunnel, all at 70 mph. Slip and slide in Lagoon A Beach’s six-acre waterpark. Transport your crew back to the old west in their Pioneer Village. Lagoon Amusement Park will surely make everyone thrilled and amused.
