Things to do in Surfers Paradise, Cypress Ave

Our first time riding a helicopter, and honestly, what an unforgettable experience. 🚁🥹 It was a mix of excitement and nervousness at first, but once we were up in the air and saw everything from a completely different perspective, it was all worth it. There’s something so surreal about looking down and realizing how beautiful everything is from above. 🩶

Beautiful sunset, slow ride. I love watching goldcoast pov from the water also we're very lucky because of the weather. Beautiful sky and there's free snacks too!

Many whales and dolphins were clearly visible, and the crew and captain on the boat were very friendly! (All the photos below were taken with my iPhone, which shows how clearly the whales could be seen! The whale highway is real.)

Amazing experience at SkyPoint Observation Deck! The views are absolutely breathtaking and worth every moment. Super easy booking the ticket on Klook.

We booked this activity after our whale watching tour. When I showed them the Klook voucher, I was able to check in and was instructed to get changed and meet at the designated spot 5 minutes before the start time. We waited comfortably in the whale watching reception area until it was time. SeaWorld was right in front of us, so I think it would be a great idea to combine this activity with a visit to SeaWorld. When the time came, the only preparation needed was to put on life jackets. The staff helped each person put theirs on, which was reassuring. There's a storage area for belongings, about the size of a locker at a hot spring, where you can put your items. However, the locks are easily opened by anyone, which made me feel very uneasy about security. If you want to bring things to the boarding area, I'd suggest putting only essential items in a waterproof case and keeping them close to your body. But I haven't tried that method myself. I just went with the flow, put my valuables in the locker, and enjoyed the activity. It was cold at the beginning of September, but the driver and staff were very enthusiastic, making it a fantastic memory. I purchased the GoPro video they took for $25. It included a photo with the boat at the beginning and a reaction video of us on the ride. The video was edited like a commercial, so it was definitely worth it. It was an activity I'd love to do again.

Just tap the QR code at the entrance and you're all set. Very convenient. No need to print. Screenshot also works. Come early. Buy the express pass if you can. It will make your trip more enjoyable. The marine life presentations here are both entertaining and educational, with the dolphin show being an absolute highlight. The polar bear exhibit offers fascinating insights into these magnificent creatures, while the penguin encounter provides a delightful up-close experience. The Storm Coaster combines a thrilling ride with an educational element about extreme weather. The Nickelodeon Land area is perfect for younger children, featuring character meet-and-greets and gentler attractions. The seal presentation showcases the intelligence and agility of these amazing animals. The park's waterfront location provides beautiful views, especially at sunset. The underwater viewing areas offer a different perspective on marine life that shouldn't be missed.

All the staff were polite, and the singer was excellent, knowing how to create a great atmosphere. There isn't much of a night view on the Gold Coast, so if I had to choose again, I'd opt for the lunch cruise. I've been on a dinner cruise in Sydney before, and both the scenery and food were noticeably higher quality there.

staff in the office very nice. the tour guide explain everything details. highly recommended

Jetboat Extreme + Helitours was fantastic! The jetboat was incredibly thrilling; I threw my hands up and felt a rush during the drifts. The driver and guide's skills were top-notch. We also had a 10-minute helicopter scenic flight. The staff arranged for us to wait an extra 30 minutes so we could witness the beautiful sunset from the helicopter, which I really appreciate. I'll definitely do Jetboat Extreme again if I get the chance in the future.
