They have FLYING horses... I mean, come on. It's historic. I always go here when in town. I am not beneath giving the kids money, in exchange for their horse rings, just so that I can be the flying horse winner, just sayn. Not sorry. 😁 …
What a treat to experience the oldest platform carousel ride in America! Give little ones a heads up that the horses are stationary - unlike today’s amusement park horses. Plus, don’t miss out on the ring game. Try to win a free ride by grabbing a brass ring! This little gem of a spot is worth stopping by for family fun!
I did not ride the Carousel, but it was unlike any one I've seen. Riders tried to collect as many meatal rings they ciuld and whoever collected the most, received a free ride! Neat concept and Oldesr Carousel in the US :)
While passing through Oak Bluffs we read an article about a woman retiring from working at The Flying Horses Carousel named Robin. After lunch at Lookout Tavern (amazing lobster rolls) we walked over to the Horses. They were just past closing but we popped in and were fortunate to meet Robin and she shared the history of the carousel and it’s 150 years of entertaining so many. What a treasure!!
I totally tried to win at the ring toss game. If you want to get good pictures, go towards the back of the arcade near the photo booth. The door is open and you can take pictures of the carrousel unobstructed by people.
This was a cute and quick stop. It's the oldest carousel in operation.
Beautiful antique carousel! We went during the off season (late September) so it's only open for rides on weekends, but they had it open for a few hours for photos on a Wednesday which was great.
Very interactive. It is not your typical carousel, where you just sit and ride the horse. While riding, the goal is to pull some rings, out of a sleeve. These rings grant you free rides. I thought it was very entertaining. Plus, it is the oldest operating carousel! How cool is that!
