About Whale's Tale Water Park

Whale's Tale is a water park in Lincoln, New Hampshire, in the White Mountains. It has run for roughly four decades and has a site listing many slides and rides. Highlights include Eye of the Storm, a steep enclosed tube with a drop into the pool, and Poseidon's Voyage, a launch capsule with a loop. Families can visit Whale Harbor for small children, float the quarter-mile lazy river, or enjoy the wave pool. Akua Beach offers surfing with a boogie board or surfboard. The park also hosts a summer concert series, and it asks guests to book ahead in peak season. Lifejackets are provided free at the entrance, and children and weak swimmers must be supervised in the water.
