Seven nights on the Gold Coast with kids, could not have asked for a smoother trip.
Tamborine Skywalk was a peaceful morning away from the beach crowds, nice change of pace. Sea World gets very crowded by midday so we learned to go early.
Sea World's dolphin show is worth planning your day around, book early seats. Weather in July was mild and pleasant, perfect for a family with young kids.
July weather was mild and easy, just right for a week of wildlife and beach with young kids.
Pricing for the standard package had us worried it might feel basic for the kids, but it did not disappoint. Currumbin's animal encounters were the clear highlight of the whole trip for both children. Tamborine Skywalk above the canopy impressed even my husband who is usually unmoved by nature walks. Only complaint is the shuttle timing between attractions felt a bit inflexible for a family with younger kids needing breaks.
Went early to Sea World on advice and grabbed front-row seats for the dolphin show, so glad we planned the day around it.
