General Info
The Paragon Carousel has been operating along the shores of beautiful Nantasket Beach for 90 years. Built in 1928 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, it is the last remaining attraction from the Paragon Park amusement park that closed in 1985. Kids of all ages will enjoy a ride on ā€œthe painted poniesā€. Then move to the Paragon Park Museum next door to learn about the parkā€™s founding in 1905 and its evolution from a Victorian era ā€œexpositionā€ to a late 20th century amusement park. Hear modern recordings of early 1900s songs about a trip to Paragon Park. Marvel at a scale model of the Giant Coaster and watch a ā€œriderā€™s viewā€ video (complete with screams!) of a front car trip on the classic wooden coaster (hands up!). See an original Kooky Kastle cart and the scale from George Kasianā€™s ā€œGuess Your Weightā€ shack. And stop at The Restoration Studio to check on the progress of the latest Paragon Carousel horse being brought back to its original beauty.The Paragon Carousel has been operating along the shores of beautiful Nantasket Beach for 90 years.
