The 10 Best Fun Activities & Games in Surfers Paradise, Queensland
The aptly-named Surfers Paradise is just that—a haven for those who pay homage to the gods of the sea by attempting to become one with the waves. The beach here is a golden stretch of soft sand that provides the perfect ambiance for a day of catching waves, catching a Frisbee or just catching some rays. Refuel at one of Surfers Paradise's 150 restaurants and cafes, or hit a Northside day spa to soothe your surf-weary muscles and smooth your sun-kissed skin.

3. Padlockd Escape Rooms
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 336 reviews
Today there are two types of people on Earth: the ones who rave about mind-bending live escape games and the ones who have never heard of them. Gradually the first group is eating the second one. Alive. Literally. It is very tricky to describe the concept of a Live Escape Game at first, but once you have tried it, the genre is obvious! You and your friends solve puzzles, crack riddles and open locks in a fast paced hour where you will either come out with massive smiles or hating everything. Our games are exciting yet challenging and have been perfectly designed for groups of 2-6 people regardless of knowledge or any specific skills. Players are locked in our themed rooms and must put together the hidden clues they find to overcome various mental tasks they encounter in order to escape the room before the 60 minute timer hits 0!

HOTA - "Home Of The Arts"...at last the Gold Coast has a cultural hub which for a city it's size is suitable for all, genres and types of entertainment. Congratulations to all involved in seeing this project come to fruition. Earlier in the year, I had the privilege to catch Laurie Anderson doing some projects/colaberations all of which were excellent...especially her concert for dogs. She effectively "opened" the NEW amphitheatre at HOTA, a real coup by the organisers. Now Nick Cave was here also, another great coup, "What do you want to know", an answer and question session interspersed with some wonderful songs by Nick from his vast catalogue in the main concert hall.... Great night great venue. Also checked out the art gallery, a must see for any music fans of the Gold Coast over the last 30 years or so Cafe food was rather scrumptious and for Nick a local brewer had a popup bar there as well....great work !!!

Had a really fun family time at Holey Moley with our teenage children. Played 18 holes on 2 different courses. This is the first mini golf course we have played that is more adult orientated and it was perfect for our family holiday. Would definitely recommend it to others looking for something to keep everyone entertained.
