Experienced Magical Dinner Buffet Cruise with SeaWorld Cruises. Can't articulate enough what a memorable time we had. Fresh food, table, lighting & surrounds created a very moody romantic vibe. Enjoyed nightlights & Live Music on Top Deck. Superb!

Gold Coast is such a fun spot to holiday. Lots of shopping and food. Close to the beach, Sea World, amusement parks, and national parks. It is easy to navigate the local public transportation. I highly recommend checking out local hikes and vineyards

You have to pick your activities based on the time of day. Early morning or evening walks, swim in the middle of the day or stay in air conditioned buildings. The tropical heat, tempered water and nature fill views can't be beaten 😊

We went to the Flamingo show and were pleasantly surprised how good it was. Also the Vault Bar was amazing, with great food, and a chef who comes out and sings, plays piano, harmonica, guitar and sings everything from Opera to Elton John

A week is too little to describe the Gold Coast, however the theme parks is a must do if you haven't. Wet n Wild was bar far the most enjoyable, with SeaWorld a close second as you are able to enjoy the Sea Lions and Dolphin shows.

you'll need a car if you want to do things in Gold Coast. While the tram is great for up and down the strip if you want to visit the parks it's a bit of a commute and public transport doesn't appear a great option for that.

Parking is expensive (between $20- $40 depending where you go) and the free parks can be challenging to find and during the week can only be used for a certain amount of time without the abilty to purchase more.

Down the Palm Beach end of the Gold Coast, less busy & the environment is more relaxed & the people are friendly & easy going too. Easy to get around on public transport including by car.
