Atlantis Marine Park - What Remains?
Рет қаралды 20,831
Ай бұрынOpening in Two Rocks on Boxing Day 1981, the Atlantis Marine Park was a unique theme park for Perth including all sorts of performing sea life, primarily dolphins. This story goes deeper, however, involving Alan Bond's Yanchep Sun City and the prime times of the 80s, followed by the downturn of the 90s. Even though it was mostly demolished in the early 90s, there are still remains 30 years later. Let's hope in the Kia and find out what remains!

Been meaning to visit Neptune for years now, probably do it sooner rather than later having seen this. Even as a younger Perthite (mid 20s), there's still so much of the city that's been changed, replaced and erased with little ceremony in the time I've been around. Great vid!

I'm glad you decided to make this one, after I commented previously suggesting it I had gone and visited again myself, a nice motorbike ride up. It was great to see king Neptune cleaned up and open to the public. I was a little disappointing that a number of the shops at the complex had shut and it was looking a bit dilapidated, but I hope the development going through can bring life back. Now, have you heard of the Mandurah castle fun park? The whistle stop would also be a great one, but I think that is private property and may be hard to get access...

Hi Brendan. Really enjoy your videos. Can I suggest a vid about Canning Bridge? I don't know much about it (I'm probably not alone in that :)), even though I grew up near it and used to go fishing underneath it (it had/has a kind of jetty thing underneath it, projecting from the Como side of the river). Two things are clear: It's pretty old, and made of wood. So it has to have a cool history, right :) Another potentially interesting historical site is the nearby Heathcote Hospital (now a kind of public park/space), but all the old buildings are still there.

I remember Yanchep Sun CIty being a long way from home (Balga) and cold and mostly deserted (so we likely went in winter). We went to Atlantis in it's hey-day and it was fun - but not surprising that it fell into decline. There was speculation that Bond had named the development "Sun City" after Sun City in South Africa - possibly to attract South African investors or potential home oweners.

I wonder what happened to the Charlie Chaplain statue (it was in your video, he was headless!) as I remember seeing it years ago but it appears to have dissapeared. It’s amazing walking through and matching up what would’ve been. I’ve been in touch with the WA Museum as I’ve collected several pieces from the park that I’d like to donate to the museum - Atlantis T shirt, seal plush, dolphin plush, Atlantis bell, post card, glass mug, and collectable spoons.

My family went to Atlantis when I was about 6 years old (so mid 1980s). I remember the aquariums and being scared to tears by King Neptune, don't really remember the dolphin shows. I always wanted to go back and would constantly hassle my mum about it. Then it closed and I never got my chance. I did go up there with some friends around 2009 and got some cool photos, the "Prickle" (that star shaped building) was still there, but obviously used as a drug den (so was Neptune actually).

Hi Brendan. Thanks so much for making this. I had hoped you might get to Alantis at some point. There is some good 1989 footage here from the 8:10 mark: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6qYjJdp1Zqmdp8.htmlsi=D8W7ueGelEqnckjQ&t=490 There was a tonne of weird and whacky theme parks north of Perth in the 1980's. The Wanneroo Lion Park (opened in the '70s) was the oddest of all. You drove your car into a fenced off 'park' area filled with lions and threw a slab of meat out the car window that you purchased from the front entrance. My memory of the meat was that it is was a giant slab of rump steak. You could then watch the big cats eat it. I first went there around 1980-81, not long after my family migrated to Western Australia from NZ. There were various rumours and sightings of an escaped lion where I lived at the time in Bullsbrook and there was also a story about someone who killed themselves there by getting out of their car. The lions attacked and ate them.

I've considered it and checked it out in person while filming for another video, but right now it's an active construction site. Still, they're retaining enough that I could once development is finished

Bullens Lion Park was up past Wanneroo it was established in 1971 as a refuge for displaced circus lions. in 1982, a man stepped out of his car and walked into the lion compound wearing religious medallions and holding a cross - he was mauled to death by a pack of lions awaiting their mid-morning feed.

Carabooda. It took me a while to figure out where exactly. It turns out it's now where Benara Nursery is!

You must do a lot of research, as Perth is an insignificant city compared to world standards. Nobody bothers with Perth History. Do you just get all your info from the State Library? I have been in the archive sections. The library has a lot of archives that people do not know about.

I get quite a lot of information from the library, particularly for the more rural subjects. Otherwise, you'd be surprised by the quality of resources around the internet

The awful "generic youtuber drone" voice ruins your videos. Just speak normally, you cover interesting things but make it irritating to listen to the information.

If I talked using my normal speaking voice, the video would be over in about 2 minutes. I doubt even the automated subtitles could keep up
