All family members want to have fun on their holiday, finding a destination that suits your family can be a little tricky if you have children of different ages. There are many options so that everyone can have a great fun time.
Here are a few suggestions that may suit your family
For a Relaxing Holiday
Go camping in a tent or RV, for a long weekend close by or travel further and explore your state or go interstate.
Stay in a cabin at a Caravan Park or Holiday Park. Make sure it’s a family friendly park with many activities to keep you all busy. Some Parks have kids clubs and scheduled activities for the whole family.
The beach is always a winner, especially if you don’t live near the beach. That makes it all the more special. All ages can enjoy the waves, the sand, reading a book, checking out the rock pools and the view. Accommodation may have to be booked well ahead as the beach is a very popular destination.
Animals are always popular there are many, zoos, wildlife parks, aquariums etc all over Australia.
Try an Adventure Holiday
If you don’t normally go camping consider hiring a campervan or camper trailer. Have an adventure and discover new places, travel your state or territory or go interstate.
Go on an organised tour that includes the adventure activities you are interested in eg. rock climbing, scuba diving, cycling, hiking, rafting etc.
Experience the City or Country Holiday
If you live in the country you make choose to stay in a motel in your nearest city within walking distance of the cities attractions. Be amazed by the shopping, cafes, attractions.
If you live in the city stay in a country town or in farm stay accommodation, Enjoy the fresh air and country landscapes and everything else country living has to offer.
Have a Blast at Fun and Theme Parks
Everyone loves fun and theme parks, they are very family friendly. The most popular are at the Gold coast QLD these are Warner Bros Movie World, Sea World, Wet'n'Wild Water World and Dreamworld. My family visited these parks in 2002, they are an incredible experience, so much to see, enjoy. Totally Family Friendly - Something For Everyone!
