Atlantic Beach Park

My heart truly wants to give the Atlantic Beach Amusement Park 5 stars but I think I’m being somewhat generous with 3.
The only real problem with this amusement park is it’s size & age. What it lacks for being modern it more than makes up for with charm. The merry go round is in perfect working condition & it seems like you’re going back in time when you’re on it. In addition to an arcade, bumper cars & mini-​golf there’s about 4 other rides for small children.
The newest addition still seems a bit antiquated. It’s a dragon roller coaster that my 14 rode & she said she was scared she’d fall out. My 3 year old absolutely loves Monkey Mayhem which is a big barrell that spins around & around. There’s a smaller roller coaster that goes forward a bit then backwards & he loves it too.
The games in the arcade do seem to be up to date. I can’t really comment too much since I’m not a gamer. But the selection seems ok & there are a few other coin-​op games too. Nothing crazy but it’s acceptable.
We always have a great time when we go & my son asks to go all the time. Since we live almost walking distance from there we can go at the drop of a hat & haven’t been there during peak time. When we do go we get personal service since there’s hardly anyone there.
I do love the charm of this place & there aren’t any other rides on the beach so you’re stuck with them whether you think it’s a dump or think it’s awesome. I’m somewhere in between. It’s a very charming dump that’s family friendly & I’d recommend it to everyone.
