Are you planning to take a break at the southern end of the Gold Coast with the family? Then you should consider heading to Currumbin.
The coastal suburb is home to many family-friendly attractions one of which is Surf World Gold Coast. A collection of fascinating surfing memorabilia are being displayed in this museum. So if your family wants to learn more about the history and surfing icons, Surf World Gold Coast is the perfect attraction. But that's not all as Currumbin is also home to one of Gold Coast’s most popular tourist destinations.
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary showcases amazing exhibits and entertainment both the young and the young at heart will enjoy such as:
Free Flight Bird Show: Birds are smart, colourful and simply marvellous. You can see them up close as they free-fly across the audience at the sanctuary's Free Flight Bird Show. So get your camera ready and capture the beauty of the Australian pelican, birds of prey, parrots, and wedge-tailed eagle.
Australiana Sheep Shearing: Catch the sanctuary's “Gun Shearer” in action as he shears a Marino woolly sheep at the Australiana Sheep Shearing show. He'll also be happy to share some yarns, laughs, and a photo with you. You can even hold a snake if you want to.
Dr. Doo-Lots & the Creature Teacher Show: Have you met a wildlife whisperer before? If not, don't miss the chance to meet one at the Dr. Doo-Lots & the Creature Teacher Show. You will definitely learn a lot from Dr. Doo-Lots and his friendly Creature Teachers. Listen carefully though because Dr. Doo-Lots loves giving away prizes.
Crocodile Behaviour Show: The sanctuary has a new resident. Meet Boss Hog, a five metre massive salt water crocodile. He has a girlfriend named Lilly, a fresh water crocodile. Know more about them and their kind at the Crocodile Behaviour Show. If you want a photo to remember, stay after the show and have your photo taken while holding a baby saltwater crocodile.
