Part Waterpark And Part Amusement Park, Canobie Lake Park Is The Ultimate Summer Day Trip In New Hampshire
It doesn’t matter what the weather is, we’re always thinking of what we’ll do when it’s nice enough to be outside. If you’re the same way, we’ve got a great option for your summer bucket list. There’s no reason to choose between water fun and high-flying adventure when you head to one of the most fun water and amusement parks in New Hampshire!
Canobie Lake Park, located in Salem, sits directly on Canobie Lake and offers one of the most fun days you can have in New Hampshire.
The park opened its doors for the first time in 1902 with the goal of enticing visitors to travel to the region rather than simply stopping in Boston. It worked and tourism dollars arrived, helping the area thrive.
Today, Canobie Lake Park continues to be one of the most fun day trips you have take in New Hampshire. If you love adventure, you'll want to head straight to the Canobie Corkscrew, which features two loops of upside-down fun.
Once you've enjoyed the perfect amusement park adventure, make your way to Castaway Island, the onsite water park meant to cool you down on a summer day.
Castaway Island features lots of fun slides and rides, as well as calmer activities like the Tidal River. This lazy river is relaxing, but also features waves that are sent through every 12 seconds so some added fun.
And, when the sun begins to go down remember to take in the beauty of the natural setting next to the lake. This fun water and amusement park in New Hampshire is worth every minute!
