If you want to get the kids outdoors and into the water, then for just $25.00 and
50 minutes of water fun you can get the kids on an inflatable waterpark in
Southport. Located on the Broadwater Parklands the inflatable park is fun for
everyone. Bounce around, slide about and jump yourself into the immense fun at
the GC Aqua Park. Open Monday to Sunday from 6am to 6pm you cannot
disappoint the kids. Check out the GC Aqua Park here.
GC Wake Park
34 Maudsland Rd, Oxenford QLD
It’s time for the kids to ride on top of the water with a wakeboard. If your kids
are up for an outdoor, water filled adventure, then the GC Wake Park is your next
destination. For 1 hour, the kids could be knee boarding, wakeboarding, skiing or
learning the in and outs of riding on the water. For just $45 a session the kids
will enjoy a day experiencing the life on the water. GC Wake Park also has a kids
club for under 15’s on Saturday and Sunday from 8.30 am, so why not let them
learn in a group. Check out GC Wake Park here.
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary – Treetop Challenge
28 Tomewin St, Currumbin QLD
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary really offers the best of all worlds. If the kids want
to say hi or get a close up glimpse of our Aussie wildlife, watch an array of animal shows and then test themselves physically by monkeying above the treetops, then this is you.
For just $39.00 your kids will be flying through the sanctuary on zip lines
and climbing through trees on their treetop challenge course. It is an adventure
for the whole family that you will want to try. Book the Treetop Challenge at
Currumbin Bird Sanctuary here.
