Experience the childrens and family activities with our Gold Coast car rental service.
Vacationers to Queensland’s Gold Coast playground can select from a large selection of children’s and family fun activities whenever they want a break from the fabulous beaches.
Many Gold Coast attractions are within walking distance of the most popular beachside towns; for others, however, you’ll need a car. All the many attractions along the Gold Coast strip and the lush hinterland are within easy reach once you have a set of wheels.
Tourists can now order a GPS unit in their rental cars, even in the cheap rental cars. This option, which is offered when hiring a Gold Coast car rental with us at Cutprice Car Rentals, makes driving around the area and its many attractions far more relaxing.
Most theme parks are about 15 minutes north of Southport. While theme parks are a compelling fun destination for groups of all ages, they are not the only recreational activities available for children and families.

Southport has three indoor children’s play centres complete with mazes, tunnels, slides, ball ponds and cubby houses.
The family will love playing mini-golf at Putt Putt Golf in Mermaid Beach. It has lots of wacky challenges including a Jungle Trail, Fun Run and Waterways with its lakes and waterfall.
Hand-feed the brilliantly coloured lorikeets at the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary at the southern end of the Gold Coast. These exciting feeding sessions are held 8am and 4pm each day. There is also a full program of activities and displays each day; which includes pelican feeding, free flight eagles, koala photos, kangaroo feeding and even a crocodile show.
Take in the view from the Q1 Observation Deck at Surfers Paradise, the world’s tallest residential tower. On a good day, you can see all the way up Brisbane and south to Byron Bay.
Whatever you do, don’t miss the theme parks. When booking your holiday, take the time to check out the rides and other attractions at each theme park. Many rides set minimum heights or suggested age groups.
Next, decide how much time and money you wish to spend there and whether you don’t mind getting wet. Remember, you may have to queue for the more popular rides, especially at peak times. Multi-park and family ticket packages can be purchased online or on the day.
Theme parks are yet another way to enjoy your holiday on the Gold Coast. So enjoy!
