Family friendly

Perfect place to take the family to see and learn all about the sea animals. Once you have done that, there are plenty of rides for all sizes. They put on a great boat and water ski show which is a must-see. The dolphin show and seal show are a must also.

If the weather is warm, (doesn't matter if it is raining, still go) take the kids and family to ride all the water slides "Wet n Wild" have on to offer. If extreme rides are not what you are after, head to the wave pool or "calypso bay" for a calm river ride. On the way out finish the day off with a ice cream.

Trams will get from Broadbeach out the front of Pacific Fair all the way up the coast to Southport then to Helensvale. Easy to hop on and hop off with plenty of stops along the way and regular trams.
