Get panoramic views of the city after a brisk bush walk on a paved track. Enjoy a coffee and snack or ice cream at the top. Best after some rain but we’ll shaded all year round!

Rain or shine... this is where to go. The pools are free and so well maintained. There is something for ever mood. Creek play? Head to the rock pool.. Need a lay on a Sandy beach - streets beach is your best bet. The kids will love the splash pool and everyone will love the large swimming pool too. Open late if you fancy a night swim on those balmy summer nights. Weekends are market days so pick up some new jewellery or a nice bit of art. There are loads of food options around but my favourite is Olé, a tapas restaurant with a great vibe.

Excellent rainy day option! The museum, modern are gallery and theatres are down by the river in south Brisbane. Walking distance to Southbank so you can spend the whole day there if you want! All day parking is $17 under the cultural centre with is much cheaper than Southbank. There is some free road parking at the weekend around south Brisbane.

Cuddle a koala, pet a dingo and feed kangaroos. It’s a great day out for everyone and improves every time we go!

Here you find a few lovely cafes, the best butcher, a boutique cinema and a gourmet food market for special occasions. I also can absolutely recommend City Cave for pampering, a float or an infrared sauna

It’s a night food market in container ships. Right on the river, this place gets busy and oozes atmosphere. There’s live music, bouncy castles, bars and more food than you can imagine and a few boutique shops to boot. Do not eat before you go! There is a cover charge to get in but it’s worth it!

Kids favourites

This one is for the kids. The best new playground around. It has everything, is fully enclosed and has bbqs if you want an evening play and feed. Only downside is the young trees that haven’t quite grown enough to provide shade but it’s coming!
Leslie Patrick Park Playground
287 Dawson Parade
This park is beautiful huge and central. Next to the river, you can get on a river cat and travel up the river.
