As well as sun, surf and sand the Gold Coast in Australia is known for its theme parks. Five major parks, all within driving distance of each other, attract both the young and young at heart. There is something for everyone. The range of Gold Coast theme park tickets available means that anyone can visit at a time and price that suits them.
There are five major theme parks; Sea World, Movie World, Wet’n'Wild, Dreamworld and White Water World. Sea World was the first to open and in addition to thrilling rides it has dolphin shows, water skiing displays, and a shark pool.
At Movie World you can watch a stunt show with the quality of any top Hollywood blockbuster. The rides are themed around movies you will recognise. The waterslides at White Water World and Wet’n'Wild cater for all age groups and levels of courage.
Tiger Island at Dreamworld is an incredible experience. You can watch as handlers interact with Bengal and Sumatran tigers. There is also a large wildlife park showcasing Australia’s native animals. This is in addition of course to the many amazing rides on offer.
Single park, one day entry is the most expensive way to gain access to the parks. However, if you only want to visit one theme park they are the right choice. Pensioner discounts from the adult admission price are available. Children from three to thirteen qualify for child entry and kids under three are free. Two day tickets are also available.
Annual passes allowing twelve months unlimited entry are available for all parks. Some conditions do apply so check that they suit your circumstances before you purchase. Dreamworld also has a fully transferable family and friends pass for two adults and two children. Sea World tickets are all single person entry.
Multiple park passes are excellent value if you intend to visit more than one theme park. The Super Pass for Movie World, Sea World and Wet’n'Wild allows unlimited entry to all three parks for fourteen consecutive days. A Fun Pass allows people to visit each park once, for one day in any five day period. If you only want to visit two of the three parks an Escape Pass lets you do this.
Located right next door to each other on the Pacific Highway, Dreamworld and White Water World also have a multiple park pass. On a one day World Pass you can visit each park as many times as you like in the same day. With a two day World Pass you can do the same for any two days in a fourteen day period.
Dreamworld also has an early entry pass. The numbers are restricted to eliminate crowds. It allows people to ride the thrill rides an hour before normal opening time. Both Sea World and Dreamworld have special tickets for interactive experiences with animals. The cost of these is additional to entry costs.
The theme parks are one of the Gold Coast’s most popular attractions. They are great fun to visit for families, couples and singles. With the variety of Gold Coast theme park tickets available everyone can enjoy the experience.
