Giant Dipper roller coaster

The Giant Dipper, also known as the Mission Beach Roller Coaster and by other previous names, is a historic wooden roller coaster located at Belmont Park in the Mission Beach area of San Diego, California, United States. Built in 1925, it is one of two remaining wooden coasters on the West Coast designed by notable coaster designers Frank Prior and Frederick Church, along with the other Giant Dipper, which opened a year earlier at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Giant Dipper at Belmont Park was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and it was later designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.
