The water park first opened in 1988 as Quaywest and it was run for 15 years by Freetime Lesiure Management. Due to heavy financial losses Freetime Leisure Management handed  the keys back to the council in September 2008. Torbay council awarded the contract to run the park to Lemur Leisure Ltd, the company running the Splashdown water park in Poole, Dorset initially on a five and half year basis.
