Ocean Beach Pleasure Park has unveiled new attractions in time for the Easter holidays.

Ocean Beach Pleasure Park, in South Shields, has announced more rides and attractions for the whole family - just in time for the Easter holidays.

The fair, which welcomes thousands of visitors a year, has already introduced a big wheel this year and now, it is unveiling a brand new spinning coaster.

Both rides offer spectacular views across South Shields' parks and coastline, with new additions for Easter including a beach slide, Mini Miami, Tagada and the King Swing.

The Mini Miami is a child-friendly version of the popular adult attraction, while Tagada is defined as a "bumpy ride", as riders sit in a round bowl which spins and bounces them off their seats.

The King Swing is designed for "adrenaline junkies" while the beach slide provides fun for the younger visitors to Ocean Beach Pleasure Park.
