Tamborine Mountain is a great spot to explore! Here are a few things to check out: Waterfall: There’s a waterfall, though it’s not the most impressive one you’ll ever see—but still a nice little stop! Tree Top Challenge Adventure Park: Perfect for those who love a bit of adventure and want to tackle the tree tops. Glow Worm Cave: A unique experience where you can see glow worms up close! We also discovered a super cute little quaint 'village' nearby called The Gallery Walk. Lined with shops, cafés, fudge stores, and restaurants. It’s all on one street, so it’s easy to explore and doesn’t take too long—perfect to pair with a mountain walk!
We were recommended this company for whale watching but didn't get to try it - we will try to go during this trip so more info to follow.
There are loads of options for wildlife, parks and theme parks. We won't list them all here but Gold Coast in known for its outdoors, water sports and theme parks.
