Blue Barnacle

Blue Barnacle is a Metallbau Emmeln swinging pirate ship which opened in April 2021 at Chessington World of Adventures in southwest London, England as a replacement for the now defunct Black Buccaneer.

[1] In 2022 Pirates Cove was transformed into Shipwreck Coast, with the theming of the area being updated to feature more influence from the architecture of coastal villages and towns.

In addition, the valley surrounding Blue Barnacle became the home of a flock of Bagot goats.

Blue Barnacle is a type of amusement ride consisting of an open, seated gondola (usually in the style of a pirate ship) which swings back and forth, subjecting the rider to various levels of angular momentum.

The attraction is manufactured by German company 'Metallbau Emmeln' and sports a blue, red and white colour scheme.
