This is because if you visit the water sport centre this weekend you will be treated to what they claim is the world’s largest inflatable water slide.
The centre is hoping to get the slide into the record books as adjudicators from the Guinness Book of World Records are due to check it out on June 18.
Owner Ritchie O'Hara said the centre 'has their fingers crossed' that the Guinness Book of Records certifies the monastic themed slide.
The Round Tower stands at a whopping 12.6m (41.3ft) and it really does like the best craic ever to use!
It is not the only attraction however, as the floating park also features trampolines, a castle, hamster wheels, an obstacle courses and even a jungle.
It costs €10 for children under 14 to use the water park for an hour and comes in at €15 an hour for children aged 15 and older. Wet suits are €3 to hire.
Admit it, you want to go!

The park is open at 4pm on weekdays – last admission is 5pm – and is open all day on Saturday and Sunday this weekend.
We know here we are going for the Bank Holiday weekend anyway!
