Rides
The Park is home to three water slides (Dark Hole, Green Giant & Master Blaster), a surfing-machine (Flow-Rider), a Pirate Ship (under 5's), a Lazy River and a large pool that generates waves.
Legal cases
After a lengthy legal process, the Government (through its company, CSID) won a High Court case to repossess the centre due to failure of Dublin Waterworld to pay any rent. CSID also alleged that the NAC was not being properly maintained. This was held by the commercial court not to be the case.
The result of this case was appealed by the Dublin Waterworld and the Supreme Court hearing was scheduled for 14 November 2006, Dublin Waterworld losing and handing back possession.
