The Caribe Bay water amusement park is located on the outskirts of the small Italian town of Jesolo in the province of Venice , directly on the Adriatic Sea . The 80,000 square meter amusement park, which opened in 1989 and has since been expanded and modernized several times, is, according to the operator, the largest amusement park in Italy. The owner of the park is Luciano Pareschi. The amusement park has been voted the best aquapark in Italy several times by "Parksmania".
