Family Vacation Australian Style
A destination that is usually overlooked for family vacations is the Sunshine Coast in Australia. This region is full of amusement parks and creative family activities that everyone can enjoy. Your family will have so much fun that it will be the only place that they talk about while you deciding on your next family vacation destination.
One of the most unique and fun family activities is the Bellingham Maze. It is a great place for all ages as you travel through a magic waterfall, venture off to the caf through the rainforest and try to make your way through the hedge maze. There are many mazes and puzzles throughout. While visiting the caf you can try some of the brain teasers, or try your skills at the amazing tile puzzles on the ground. There are also a maze made from tires and another made of ropes. You can even enjoy a hunt for the seven dwarfs while in Snow Whites cottage. Bellingham Maze is a wonderful interactive activity that will provide you family with a whole days worth of entertainment.
Another fun place for the whole family is the fun park called Aussie World which contains over 30 different rides and games and is guaranteed fun for the entire family. Aussie World includes mini golf, a super giant Ferris wheel, an octopus ride and an incredibly cool roller coaster. The setting reminds you of being in an old Australian fairground, and although there are plenty of things for the older folks to ride and enjoy there are also many scaled down versions for the littler children in your group. While there be sure to make a stop in at the Ettamogah Pub, one of the most famous bars in the world and Blueys Grill where they serve some delicious grub suitable for the whole family.
Sunshine Castle is another fun and exciting place to visit with the whole family. This Norman style castle is as educational as it is enchanting. Filled with all that a medieval castle should be Sunshine castle has its own turrets, towers, and a drawbridge that takes you across a real moat. A day at Sunshine castle includes a children’s treasure hunt and sweet treats for all. Be sure to stop in as this is an adventure that is just spectacular.
Visiting the Sunshine Coast with your family is not a vacation, it is an adventure.
