    Back when Scarborough was a real resort. The two longest waterslides in the world back then.

    Atlantis should never have closed. Shame on you Scarborough Council.

    It's a real shame all these places are gone now. In the 90s we went to here and Mr Marvels in Scarborough, another year we went to Bubbles open air complex and Fronteirland in Morecambe- both long gone now too 😔

      I'm guessing it just cost too much to run.

    Were the slides fast? They look long but slow as there not steep? Many memories driving past this place

    Crying shame this and Marvels no longer exsists.
    With the right investment both could have been amazing.
    The water park was huge fun as it stood, why did they demolish it?

      Yeah that's what I always called it but it opened as water scene, then changed to water splash World, then became Atlantis in about 94/95. 🙂

    Just noticed at the end of the footage, you can see the hispaniola that used to sail on the mere! All these years and I only just noticed.

      Or could it have been the Bark Endeavour, that used to regularly sail between Whitby and Scarborough?

      Indeed another great attraction to Scarborough now long gone :(. Use to have a fell crew dressed up and everything. Then later on reduced to just one man driving it. Then nothing :(
