Welcome to paradise Island, a new holiday resort in the making. Right now, all that was completed is the B&M monster of the park, called Icy Passes. The coaster itself looks like an oversized iceberg sticking out of the water.

Here is a pic where the coaster gets it's name. Now, look at the temperature. No one knows why, but that little ice island is the only place on the entire resort that's below freezing temperatures.

There's 4 islands, and one of them is that iceberg you see up there. Then come the other islands.

Apparently, before Paradise Islands had started building here, we had a different
park here. It was called Paradise Island, and was only on one island. Nothing else. It had a Vekoma Woodie, but something happened.

This is what happened: Train 2 was sabotaged when the park was closed at night. And on the fastest hill, it flew of the track, threw the passangers into the water, and then nosedived into the water. So terrible. And the park went bankrupt after that. It only had a woodie, and it was destroyed to give some money to the park manager. This is all that's left of the old park.

Now, the new park manager wants to recreate the park. But first, he needs to know how the ride used to be. So he will be asking some people.

Enjoy your stay at the scenic Paradise Islands.

One rider said there was a really small hill after the first drop, almost life 5 ft in height, then a long unbanked turn, then it goes up, and goes underground. We tried that, but unfortunately, we had no success.

Then another rider said that there a very high hill after the first drop, but at the top was a surprise, a banked turn for the people on the water (at the time, there was no path there, that's a recent addition) to see. The yachters loved it, and some even took some rides before the accident. This man also drew schematics for us, which was actually really helpful. We tried that idea, but he had a flaw. The hill that he designed for the end of the ride was not working. Pretty self-explanatory. Posted Image
But then ... we searched a little on google, and found the park manager's real name, and found his phone number. We called, and asked him if he had the designs for his old Vekoma Woodie. He did not know what we were talking about, and we later figured out it wasn't called Vekoma Woodie. It was Called Pleasure Island Speeder, and did not go underground, it was just a scenic tunnel made at the time. So, we got his plans, and we agreed to his condition: that he be the co-manager of the park. We also found out of an ambitious plan to build a huge Intamin coaster. An Intamin Hypercoaster ... which would set him back about 50 million (50000 in rct2). This is why he had the tunnel ready there. So now, we will have a few pictures of the Pleasure Island Speeder coming soon.

We have completed the Paradise Island Speeder. So beautiful. An amazing coaster, and really close to the path so guests can see it. Imagine looking from the path and seeing a train's underside fly by. Well, the park is not open yet, so these are just teasers. But for some reason, there is a little ride in the second island being built. A B&M ride, apparently. It will be finished, but no screens. For it, you need to visit the park.

We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with our big intamin ride. The technical difficulty: we have no space :><: XD and we need to steal some new land. Illegal, but we have to. Sorry.
But, until the intamin coaster is released, we have some terrible news for you. We have struck a deal with a news reporter who flew over the park to take pictures of the b&m ride. We are releasing 2 shots from her. One is a new experimental vekoma limo coaster, the other is part of a pic of the b&m ride and the vekoma experimental electric eel boomerang. Come back for more updates, soon!
The limo, plus a new ride there.

The electric eel.

I noticed a lot of your rides are over water. It looks okay but i'd change a few turns on that B&M...

Sigh. Never use the pre made coasters in a custom park...
And your archy is blocky
But the landscaping is nice and the coasters seem nice.

Thanks for the tips. And the turns on the big B&M are a little small because it has to make a large turn into the ice, and you can't do an upward turn and stop in the middle of a turn, then angle down in rct2.

looks alright... i'd say pay attention more to the surroundings of your attraction.

if it were me... i'd build everything on land. just like that green roller coaster with the trees around it? id do that on everything... put no rides just over water. and even if the coaster goes over water, then build land up on the supports

I would do that, but there's the problem of me trying to not use trainers and the limited money I have (5 mil.) Besides, it makes the ride tons more exciting if it's over water than when it's over open seas.
