Top Active Leisure Sport in Queensland

Bring your own snacks and drinks, because the nearby cafes can be pretty pricey. I ended up spending way too much on a sandwich!

If you're not a surfer, don’t just watch – take a lesson! I thought it would be awkward, but the instructors are super chill and you'll have a blast.

I recommend exploring the rock pools at low tide. It's a fun way to spend some time and look at all the little sea creatures!

I suggest booking your session online in advance, especially if you're planning to go on weekends. It gets busy, and you don’t want to miss out.

I think it's a great idea to try the non-alcoholic beers they offer. It's a nice way to chill without feeling pressured to drink, and they taste pretty good too!

I recommend checking out the local pub scene nearby before the game; it's a great way to soak up the atmosphere and maybe grab a quick bite. I stumbled into a great place just a short walk from the ground.

I suggest wearing comfy shoes; the ground is huge, and you might end up walking more than you expect! I regretted wearing my nice shoes halfway through the day.

My advice is to avoid the pricier food inside. There’s a fantastic pizza joint just outside where I grabbed a slice; much cheaper and tasted way better than the stuff inside!

I suggest wearing layers. It can get pretty cool up there, especially if you're doing a longer flight. A light jacket makes a huge difference, and you won’t be stuck feeling chilly!

If you're thinking of bringing kids, check their age limits. I found it a bit frustrating to figure out the rules on-site; I wish I’d looked into that before going.

I recommend booking your flight in the morning, like around 9 AM. The views are clearer and less crowded, plus you’ll have the rest of the day to explore the area after the ride

If you're a beginner, take a lesson first. The instructors are super chill and made me feel comfortable right away, which made a huge difference!

Don't forget to bring a towel and maybe a change of clothes! I regretted not having these after hitting the water a few times.
