Blackgang Chine is one of the oldest amusement parks in the UK. It opened in 1843 although the attractions didn't start to appear until the 1930s.

Situated on the southern tip of the Isle of Wight, Blackgang Chine is built on a cliff edge - most of which has fallen into the sea! Never fear though, the park has recently acquired planning permission to expand the park further into the island, meaning the park can continue for many, many years to come. Although being on a cliff edge offers excellent views and atmosphere, there are a few hills which makes pushchair pushing tiring.

Blackgang Chine is aimed at families with young children. Most of the attractions are playgrounds and walkthrus, but there is a roller coaster and a water slide for the big kids to enjoy.

Food at the park comes in the shape of a family restaurant and offers an acceptable range of food at reasonable prices.
