Whale's Tale Water Park

Whale's Tale Water Park is a 17 acre water park located in Lincoln, New Hampshire, United States. It has been in operation for more than 30 years.

Rides
The park has a total of 11 attractions, with recent additions of Shipwreck Island in 2010, Poseidon's Voyage in 2013, and Akua Beach in 2017. The park features rides for all ages, such as the Whale Harbor, a pool no deeper than 16 in deeming it safe for young kids and toddlers. It contains four waterslides and three water fountains.

There are seven featured waterslides in the park.
 * 1) Banzai Pipeline: a large water slide where riders start in an enclosed tube until they reach the peak where they experience a backward ride down the slide
 * 2) Eye of the Storm: A large bowl-shaped waterslide where guests first accelerate through an enclosed tube before rotating several times around the bowl. The ride ends in a 4-foot drop through a hole in the center into a deep pool, so all riders are required to be competent swimmers on this attraction. A certified lifeguard is on duty at all times at the bottom.
 * 3) Harpoon Express: a 400 ft and 7 ft bobsled-style tube that carries 1-3 persons per raft
 * 4) The Beluga Boggin: a 360 ft, figure-8 shaped, water slide suitable for small children
 * 5) The Plunge: a double slide that reaches speeds up to 40 mph, where riders can race each other
 * 6) Downpour: a 430 ft winding slide that starts 50 ft in the air. It is also connected to the Plunge.
 * 7) The Poseidon's Voyage: a long water slide where riders start in a SkyBox (a steep vertical launch capsule), which spirals down into a 360 degree loop towards the end

Jonah's Escape is a large lazy river that moves swimmers around under gentle waterfalls. In the center of the lazy river is a side attraction called the Castaway Cove.
