BUTLIN’S has now launched their new £40 million swimming pool in Bognor Regis.
The attraction is known as Splash, and features the world’s first Helter Skelter water slide.
The retro water slide is the first of its kind in the world.
Standing at 7.4m tall (almost 25ft), it’s almost the height of two double decker busses stacked on top of each other.
Like the traditional fairground attraction, there’s a bright red flume that wraps around the central tower.
But instead of sitting on a mat to come down, there will be a constant flow of water to propel you from start to finish.
It will be joining a number of other water rides at the new Butlin’s swimming pool, including Stick of Rock slides and the outdoors Seaside Garden rapids.
There’s also a wave machine for those looking to test out their surfing skills.
And for younger children, there’s a quieter spot where they can test out the water as well.
Butlin’s new pool will be a huge new attraction for the holiday resort.
It can accommodate 950 guests at the same time and is a massive 6,3000sqm.
There is a huge “changing village” with changing rooms that can fit an entire family and more spacious lockers as well as underfloor heating.
Sun Online Travel previously revealed some of the attractions around the world with the longest queues.
Unfortunately for visitors to London, it’s the London Eye that has the longest.
We also revealed some of the best theme parks around the UK.
