How to enjoy a post-lockdown trip to Fantasy Island

Exploring the UK is something people often forget all about – with the urgency to travel abroad and explore the world, the beautiful UK often gets completely overlooked. With travel restrictions likely to be in place for the foreseeable future, coming up with ideas for day trips in the UK is quickly becoming the new norm. Fantasy Island in Skegness offers the advantage of being positioned close to a fantastic tourist holiday location and being fun-filled with enough things to do to occupy you and your family for whatever period of time you choose to visit.

Fantasy Island, Skegness, Lincolnshire

One of the most family orientated things to do in Skegness is definitely to visit the popular Fantasy Island theme park – funfairs in England are few and far between but it’s fair to say that Fantasy Island is up there with the best. With infamous rides such as the Rhombus Rocket, the Millenium Ride and the Twister, as well as more gentle rides such as the dodgems and the log flume, there really is something for every member of the family. Bit of a thrill seeker? Buy a Discovery wristband and give those bigger rides a go. Have a young family? You’ll be best suited to the Little Explorer bands – giving you access to the rides that are little feet friendly and giving you the assurance that your child will have the best possible experience. Stress-free, just as it should be.

Fantasy Island isn’t just about the rides – with food vendors, markets and other exciting things to see and do whilst you’re there, you’ll be tempted to make a week of it! Turns out, you absolutely can – with accommodation available and holiday home packages to choose from, you can have the full Fantasy Island experience, affordably and without having to fly halfway across the world to get there. The different tiered price ranges ensure that there’s something for all budgets, as well as allowing you to plan your trip for as many people as you need.
