Attractions

Hang out with your favourite Nickelodeon characters like SpongeBob Squarepants or feed the rays as they swim up at their reef. With plenty of space within the lagoon, you can enjoy a performance by the Dolphins who enjoy interacting with crowds.

Rehabilitation

Almost all aquatic creatures present at the park are bought in for rehabilitative purposes and are unique to the region. It is often mistaken that Sea World Gold Coast is part of the US conglomerate which was established after three years after the park opened in down under. Meet the rescued, from birds to the dolphins who love to interact with visitors.

Location

Just off the coast of Southport, cross the Nerang River using the Sundale Bridge and you will find the park a kilometre north of the Gold Coast Waterways authorities. Under an hour from all major hotels in Brisbane CBD the likes of Oaks 212 Margaret, Sea world is accessible to major cities and landmarks on the Gold Coast.
