    Gold Coast Sea World is perfect for a family outing. There are plenty of kid-friendly attractions, as well as more exciting rides for older children and adults. There are also opportunities to get up close and personal with marine animals. The highlight was the dolphin show. The dolphins and the staff interacted so well with each other—these animals are so charming and adorable. We also bought some souvenirs to bring back for friends and family. Our family had so many wonderful memories from the day.

    We had an unforgettable experience on the Sea World Cruise Whale Watching tour! The crew was knowledgeable and friendly, providing fascinating insights about the whales and their behavior. The boat was comfortable and offered excellent viewing spots. We were fortunate to see several whales up close, making the trip truly magical. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience the beauty of marine life in their natural habitat. A must-do adventure!

    Very humane, they waited until all the guests arrived before flying. We thought we had wasted our tickets because we were late. And you can choose Chinese movies. Because it was raining, the helicopter experience was a plus.
