Snoopy's Deep Sea Divers is a Junior Flying Carpet built by Italian manufacturer Zamperla currently located at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, USA. It is located in the Planet Snoopy area.[1] The ride originally operated at Geauga Lake & Wildwater Kingdom in Aurora, Ohio, USA.

History

The ride was new to Six Flags Ohio in 2000. It was located in the Looney Tunes BoomTown area and was known as Daffy's Deep Diver, themed after the Looney Tunes character Daffy Duck. It featured a marine-themed backdrop and a figure of Daffy Duck wearing a snorkel placed on top of the vehicle.[2]

When Six Flags sold the park (later further rebranded to Six Flags Worlds of Adventure) to Cedar Fair in March 2004, the attraction was stripped of its Looney Tunes theming and was renamed to simply Dippy Divers due to the loss of the Looney Tunes and DC Comics licenses by Six Flags, now located in the rethemed Kidworks Playzone area when the park was rebranded back to Geauga Lake. The themed backdrop and Daffy Duck figure were completely removed.

In September 2007, Geauga Lake was permanently closed by Cedar Fair, who subsequently distributed the park's rides to other parks. All of the rides in the Kidworks Playzone area including Dippy Divers were relocated to Cedar Point as part of the brand new Planet Snoopy area. As part of the move, the ride was given an Peanuts theme and was renamed to Snoopy's Deep Sea Divers, themed after the Peanuts character Snoopy the Dog. It opened on May 12, 2008.
