For an exhilarating experience, visit the numerous theme parks overflowing with water rides and slides and much loved movie and television characters just waiting to be cuddled and photographed!
Healthy Activities
Just because you are on holiday, doesn’t mean you have to let your healthy habits slide! Turn fun activities into healthy activities with long walks on the beach. This is great exercise, with the added bonus of spectacular sweeping views. Just remember to stay hydrated, as you are now in the Sunshine State! Most family holidays include a lot of walking, even though you don’t realise it. With long beach walks, walking all day around the fabulous shopping outlets and the steps needed to cover the enormous theme parks, you definitely will be having a healthy holiday!
Sea water and swimming pool water and all the associated activities that come with them, will leave the family exhausted! Children are always drawn to water activities and this is a very healthy activity for all ages. Water play burns up so much energy and leaves you with a healthy appetite! Just remember to slap on the sunscreen, a hat and a sun vest and enjoy the water!
Nutritional Meals
Many Gold Coast resorts cater especially for families. Accommodation choices often have an interconnecting room or are fitted with bunk beds and kitchenettes for convenience. Most are fitted with playstations, children’s play desks and a television area just for kids. Also check out restaurants at the resorts, as nutritional kids meals are often priced at a fixed rate, which makes mealtimes an easy decision. All this is done for the comfort and enjoyment of a family holiday.
Make the most of Facilities
Keeping the children entertained will be no problem, as many holiday resorts offer fully supervised kids clubs, water parks, adventure playgrounds and games rooms. There will definitely be something to amuse the little, and not so little, ones. While the children are in the kids club, perhaps the parents could try a healthy alternative and take advantage of the day spa or gym? You will feel refreshed and rejuvenated while the children will be exhausted from their days of arranged activities, so this could be an ideal holiday!
Gold Coast package deals are designed with the family holiday in mind. A range of resorts offer strollers, bottle warmers, high chairs and numerous other things for hire, to save you a hefty excess luggage bill if you are flying, or to save space in the family vehicle, where space is often at a premium! Fun and adventure activities are catered for as well, with boogie boards and beach chairs for hire also. So, for a fun adventure filled healthy family holiday where every detail is taken care of, from activities to meals and accommodation, the Gold Coast is certainly geared towards that lifestyle.
