Carnival Sunshine opens new waterpark

By Tom Anstey    14 Aug 2013
The ship has the five largest waterslides in the Carnival fleet

Following a US$155m (£100m, €117m) renovation, cruise ship Carnival Sunshine has a new waterpark, which covers 1,500 sq m (16,100sq ft) of the 892ft (271m) long vessel.

Designed by Turkish Polin Waterparks and Pool Systems, the new WaterWorks includes three slides and an aqua play structure with 40 different interactive water features including the signature feature of the SplashZone kids area, the PowerDrencher – a 300 gallon drenching bucket.

The main feature of the waterpark is the Speedway Splash. Made up of two enclosed slides stretching 72m (236ft), the Aquatube slides allow riders to race each other with a system used to display each rider’s time on a scoreboard.

At 102m (334ft) long , the third enclosed Twister slide will be the longest on any Carnival cruise ship, while the kids area includes twin slides called Mini-Racers.

The ship is owned by Carnival Corporation which is based in Doral, Florida.
