La Mer de Sable is the family park par excellence. Located in the exceptional setting of the Ermenonville forest near Chantilly and Senlis (60), this amusement park has something for everyone. In recent years, the park has been renewing itself each season to appeal to us even more. New attractions, new shows, new events - the 2024 season promises plenty of surprises, from the moment the park reopens on April 5, 2025!
With its 45 hectares of sandy terrain, the Mer de Sable transports you to other times and places for incredible adventures in a new season. Explorers young and old will set out to conquer three astonishing worlds: the Valley of the Mississi'ptits, the New Mexico desert and the Colorado Canyon. When we say little ones, we mean children as young as 2 years old who can enjoy the shows and attractions. La Mer de Sable assures us that 60% of its attractions are accessible to children as young as 90cm, i.e. almost 20 of the 30 or so attractions on offer!
As you'll have guessed, La Mer de Sable is one of the human-scale amusement parks designed for small children, like the Jardin d'Acclimatation. It's a great place to take your first steps, although there are also attractions designed for older children.
It's a far cry from a thrill park, which isn't the target market, but there are a few attractions that will appeal to teenagers. Among the attractions for teens (from 1.20 m), Disco Loco awaits you in the world of Mexican Fiesta. 24 adventurers sit in seats fixed to the circumference of the disc, facing outwards. The disc moves along a U-shaped track, turning on itself. This year, the park inaugurates Silver Mountain, a roller coaster.
This year, the big news is undoubtedly the new roller coaster attraction to be inaugurated. It will be the park's largest: Wild Buffalo promises to be a thrill ride for the 2025 season!
