Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach 2026: Rides, Prices & Tips

Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach

Sitting at the top of the Golden Mile, the Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach has been thrilling visitors for generations. Spread across nine acres, this iconic seaside amusement park offers a fantastic mix of modern thrill rides and beloved traditional attractions.

Must-Try Rides

The star attraction is the Scenic Railway, the oldest wooden roller coaster in the UK, which has been delighting riders since the 1930s. Thrill seekers should head for the more intense modern rides, while families with younger children will find plenty of gentler options. The park operates on a pay-per-ride or wristband system.

Tips for Your Visit

The park typically opens for the season around Easter and runs through to late autumn. Weekdays are generally quieter than weekends and school holidays. Check the Pleasure Beach website for current opening times and wristband deals before your visit.

Nearby Attractions

After the Pleasure Beach, explore the rest of the Golden Mile with its arcades, crazy golf courses and the Wellington Pier entertainment complex. The seafront is also home to Merrivale Model Village and the Sea Life Centre.
