Main Beach

We had a full house for the Gold Coast Motor Race last weekend and based on Guest Feedback everyone had an awesome time at the Rock and Race Event.

Being within hearing distance of the track it is always great each year to hear the start of racing on Friday morning with the distintive noise of the awesome V8's.

Whilst most of our guests were only here for the weekend we still have a few guests who take adantage of the fantastic weather in October to enjoy a longer break with us.

See below some photo's of some of the action at the track:

There has been a steady stream of our excited Gold Coast 600 guests arriving over the last couple of days.   The park is located just 500 metres from the entrance to the track and is a very convenient locations for our guests being only a short walk from the Gold Coast 600 Sounds venue at the Southport Broadwater Parklands.

Guests checking in have been very excited to see the new race format is getting great support and that they will be in a park full of diehard race fans, volunteers and marshals. 

Main Beach Guests are enjoying another week of fun filled activities in the park.

We have said goodbye to our Queensland guests who sadly had to return to school this week but still have guests from the Southern States enjoying the sunshine. 

The park is a little quieter this week and for the first time in months have quite a few vacancies on our powered caravan sites - so if you have not booked your stay yet call our friendly reception staff on 07 5667 2720.

The fun continues this week at the Main Beach Tourist Park with plenty of the old favourites back as well as some first time activities on offer.

Main Beach guests were treated to a truly unique experience this week with a visit from John and Rory and a couple of their friends from the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary.   Following a very informative talk by handler Rory guests got an opportunity to get up close and personal with a snake, lizard and baby crocodile.  Guests enjoyed the chance to touch and even hold these amazing creatures.  Thank you Currumbin for coming and sharing these creatures with us.  

We are ready at Main Beach for the influx of guests for the September School Holidays and have a fun action packed School Holiday Activity Program planned.

Please see below the activities planned for the first week.

Sunday 18th September

Main Beach guests have enjoyed another bus trip - this time the destination was Brisbane where guests enjoyed a visit to Mount Cootha inlcuding Morning Tea before cruising the Brisbane River on the Kookaburra Queen Paddle Wheeler.   A walk around South Bank before heading back to the park topped off a great day for all.

See below some of the photo's of our great day!

Main Beach guests were treated to a bus trip with a difference this week.

Guests enjoyed a yummy morning tea at Picnic Point overlooking the Great Dividing Range, followed by an impressive tour of the Cobb & Co Museum. 

This week marked a major milestone for this year's winter guest with the park completing this year's Physical Activity Challenge which was to as a collective group Walk/Ride/Swim around Australia via Highway 1. 

Our Annual Winter Guest Recipe Cookbook was launched last week at our Annual Recipe Tasting Lunch.  The cookbook has over 80 fantastic recipes which our guests have contributed throughout the year - the best thing about the recipes are that they are guest favourites making this a recipe book packed with recipes which have been well tested.

In addition to recipes ranging from starters, salads and side dishes to hearty main meals and sensational desserts the book also has many photo's of the many activities guests have enjoyed this year.
