New waterpark by Polin is part of larger plan to attract visitors to Santorini Park, an amusement park adjacent to the Cha-Am Premium Outlet Mall in Thailand.

Istanbul, Turkey (PRWEB) January 30, 2013

Santorini Water Fantasy, a waterpark, will open this spring as an exciting new aquatics addition to Santorini Park, an amusement park adjacent to the Cha-Am Premium Outlet Mall.

Located in the southern part of the Phetchaburi Province in central Thailand, the new waterpark, as well as the existing amusement park and retail center, is the brainchild of Supoj Tantichirasakul, chairman of Pena House Public Co. Ltd. and its subsidiary.

The existing amusement park is themed after the Greek island of Santorini. The company wants to follow the trend set by sites such as Tokyo Disneyland, that city’s DisneySea and the planned Cartoon Network park in Pattaya, Thailand. To compete, Santorini Park’s aquatic options will entice guests with innovative offerings from Polin Waterparks and Pool Systems, a member of EHospa--The Organization for Exceptional Hospitality and a world leader in the aquatics industry.

The Polin-designed attractions include:

  • KING COBRA. Featuring bold red, black and white scales, the ride’s imposing veneer extends along its massive 50-foot (15.24-meter) height and 260-foot (790-meter) length. The slide features fog, sound, lights and a unique configuration that enables two riders to race along a circular path of twists, turns and surprises. Riders reach speeds of up to 32 mph (51 km/h) via water pressure of 3,875 gallons (14,668 liters) per minute through open and closed tubes. The ride ends just after they endure a heart-pounding plunge of nearly 25 feet (8 meters) down a 50-degree slope.

  • LOOPING ROCKET. This high-adrenaline ride offers one of the highest drops riders can experience. The ride features Polin’s exclusive “Magic Shine” technology in translucent colors.

  • SPACE SHUTTLE. This waterslide features an innovative design configuration, form and ride path. Fully open, fully enclosed and half-closed versions are available. Configuration options include exit via a pool or a run-out.

  • WINDIGO. Riders on mats begin this attraction within enclosed slides that transform into high-speed multi-racer lanes. It offers the flexibility of including “Kamikaze” or “Freefall” options, and its high-capacity capability will keep lines moving.

Other rides being installed by Polin include a Freefall, Aquatube, Rafting Slide, Black Hole, Kids Freefall, Space Hole, Kids Octopus Slide, Mini Pirate Slide, Turtle Slide, Rabbit Slide, Mini Rainbow Slide, Giraffe Shower, Mushroom, Aquatower Type 600, Frog Slide, Baby Octopus Slide.
