This. Is. Epic.
In early February 2020, BIG4 Gold Coast unveiled Australia’s tallest water park.
It’s not only gigantic, but it’s packed with features and absolutely overflowing with fun.
Here’s all you need to know about this colourful creation.
Where is this Gold Coast aqua park?
At BIG4 Gold Coast Holiday Park in Helensvale, just minutes from Warner Bros. Movie World and Topgolf.
How long did it take to create?
The vision for what is a world-class aqua splash park was two years in the planning, and then it took a further six months to build.
What are the highlights?
Firstly, it is the tallest water play structure in any BIG4 park.
The mammoth attraction has a whopping 40 interactive play features, including one of the largest splash buckets in Australia. The bucket drops 1000 litres of water each time. And around one million litres of recycled water pulses through this monster every hour.
In addition, there are seven waterslides with a combined length of 317m. Some of these waterslides are up to 10m tall. In fact, at their peaks you can spot Warner Bros. Movie World and the Gold Coast hinterland. Wow.
Is there a fee to use the water park?
No! It’s free to enjoy for all BIG4 Gold Coast guests.
Are there age restrictions?
There are height restrictions on the slides of 1m for the lower level and 1.2m on the higher levels. But there is plenty to keep littlies entertained, including the huge water bucket, tippy buckets, water cannons, and loads of waterspouts.
Please note: Adult supervision is required at all times while children are using the splash park.
Where can parents supervise their kids?
Right next to the splash park is a dedicated shaded area for parents with plenty of undercover seating. Adults can kick back and relax in the giant cabanas, and there’s a licensed café at hand, too.
Is this Gold Coast splash park open year round?
Absolutely! Enjoy water-based adventures no matter the time of year.
A word from BIG4 Gold Coast’s owner…
We are so excited to open this water park to our guests. We take pride in providing all of our guests with fun and memorable experiences.
Our water park takes excitement to a new level. Families can now stay and play longer without having to leave the park.
Parents will love it, too, because there are ample shaded cabanas and day beds to relax on while the kids go wild.
– BIG4 Gold Coast owner, Norton Whitmont.
