SC2 (Sun Centre 2) is a leisure complex in Rhyl, United Kingdom.

History

The original Sun Centre waterpark closed in February 2014. Denbighshire council had withdrawn funding from the company which operated it and as a result the not-for-profit firm could no longer afford to keep it open.[1] In May 2016, the council submitted plans to demolish the waterpark and build a replacement facility.[2]

The facility was opened in 2019, five years after the closure of Rhyl Sun Centre.[3]

Facilities

The complex has an indoor and outdoor waterpark with water slides and play areas for young children.[4] Separate from the waterpark, there is also a "Ninja Tag" attraction.[5]
