The Salisbury Beach Carousel is a cherished, 115-year-old antique carousel that has been beautifully preserved inside a pavilion near the beach. The hand-painted carousel is a true work of art, with many of the horses having been "adopted" by local families and businesses. For just $2 per ride, visitors can enjoy the nostalgic experience of this historic carousel, which is still fully operational. The staff are known for their exceptional friendliness, often offering free rides when the carousel is not too busy. Visitors, both young and old, have described the experience as feeling like a kid again, with one grandchild even asking to ride "again, again!" While the $3 per ride cost can add up, the carousel provides a delightful and memorable experience for all who visit.
They hosted our private bridal shower. We were able to host a solid group of 30+ with food catered. It’s a beautiful set up indoors. Paul was there and very thoughtful/flexible with our needs. The carousel was open to us for a few rides which was an awesome and underrated bonus!
