  • Join us as we continue our mini South Wales road trip by visiting Barry Island Pleasure Park
    Barry Island is about 30mins drive east up the coast from Coney Beach Porthcawl and is an easy to do day trip by fitting both amuse parks in one day
    Barry Island is owned by the famous British showman, Henry Danter (definitely not Harry) and the park itself is famous for previously housing rides created by John Wardley, unfortunately they no longer exist
    Barry Island Pleasure Park is cramped full of rides for the whole family to enjoy including the brand new Mondial Top Scan which Henry Danter has recently just bought from Coney Beach
    Footage was filmed in HD 1080p 50fps using a Max Lens Mod attached and with official accessories

    John Wardley did quite a bit of work at the park in his early days. Converted the Ghost Train into Uncle Frankenstein's Scream Machine, made alterations to the Jungle Ride, and designed the Whacky Goldmine and Log Flume.

    Went today as it’s our local park, octopus is still in the same spot, it’s not working still not sure what’s going on with it
    The dodgems now have roofs! And the top scan is epic and all the lights were working, that and the Super trooper look stunning in the dark 👍

    hi Coaster Crazy another great vlog i loved your reply to my comment on your porthcawl vlog it is great to see you at Barry island i cant believe how much it has changed over the years i must say Henry Danter has brought life back to it he has brought some truly fantasic rides such as the octopus jets and top scan i hope he brings more i can remember when i was a kid my mum would take me my brother and my sister to barry island by train when we saw the old log flume we knew that we was in barry i never been to barry now for years i hope to go one day

    I, for one, LOVE that you cover the fun fairs and smaller parks. It makes me nostalgic for all the travelling fairs and carnivals I attended growing up. They were the best and I always looked forward to going to them. Those were the rides and atmosphere that got me really excited!

    When I was a kid, I am sure that Cyclone was called Galaxy, and was next to a great classic Funhouse that had a 90 degree slide at the end, I remember back in the late 70's seeing a Radio 1 Roadshow hosted by Peter Powell in the pleasure park, ah for the good old days.

      @@Coaster_Crazy Yep it is exactly the same as the one back in the 70's, but different cars, no overhead seatbelts back in those days. I remember sat in the bar in Butlins with mum and dad with my Pepsi looking over the fair and wishing I was there. They would give me £1 to play on the arcade machines in Butlins, and I would sneak out and go to the fair, needless to say they had one eye on the Butlins security gate and always saw me sneaking out.

I remember the Log Flume a beautiful ride, but always got soaked, the Ghost Train was fun, Enterprise was mega for it's day, but I always found the Pitate Ship a bit boring. I loved the arcade, I think it was called Lucky Penny? That is where I became addicted to Pinball Tables.

It was so tall you could see it from a few spots around Barry, it got moved to Great Yarmouth but it’s gone from there now

      Excuse my daughter commenting with my account lol!
      2 important points... Us locals don't call that travesty the 'Log Flume', we're still mourning the *real* Log Flume which was demolished when Mr Danter took over(one of 2 last remaining permanent rides(the other being the Jungle Boat) which had been left to rot away of the years) a NEW Log Flume was promised when he took over... We are still waiting!
      The most important ride there now, historically, is the Gravitron.. what you see is the original model which was at Barry way back from circa 84!
      I know this as I constantly went on it :-)
      The owner of the ride is a local lad, who loved it so much,he just had to buy it, bring it back to Barry, and restore it to it's former glory!
      Keep up the good work! 👍
