Skip Strand
Skip Strand is a play beach full of shipwrecks. There's a half-sunken three-master, the Nordstjernan. The wreck of the steamboat Vågstycke has also run aground. Three slides lead from that steamboat into the water. Next to it is the floating obstacle course Hoppablad.
The concept
In the story of Rulantica, intruders weren't allowed onto the island. The stranded ships are proof of their failed attempts. Now the wrecks are a big play area. The three slides are Översnabb (blue, for beginners), Översnurra (with a loop) and Överstor, a wide, wavy slide where three people slide side by side. They were built by Aquarena.
The Experience
The slides are short: they start at a height of 3.30 metres and are 16 to 30 metres long. On Överstor you race against your family. At Hoppablad you jump across floating islands between the beach and the three-master. They move, so if you go too fast, you'll end up in the water.

Slide badge for children
Children aged 4 to 11 can earn the Snorri-Rutschabzeichen at Skip Strand. They learn the slide and swimming rules.
Glasses off at Hoppablad
Glasses aren't allowed on Hoppablad. Put them aside before you run across the islands.
Shows on the stage
On the stage at Skip Strand there are shows for children. Check the app for times.
Visitor information
For the three slides you must be at least 1.10 metres tall and able to swim. From age 10 you can go on your own; younger children must be accompanied by an adult. The park advises against the slides if you're pregnant; Hoppablad isn't allowed then. Skip Strand is open all year round.
A play area for little pirates
Skip Strand is ideal for children who find the big slides just a bit too scary. Parents can find a lounger nearby. For the very youngest there's Trølldal.
