Dreamworld on the Gold Coast

This perennial Gold Coast favourite is a quarter of a century old and still going strong. Dreamworld has many facets – it’s a fun park, a wildlife world and even a television set all rolled into one full-filled package, with something for everyone in the family. Combine it with a visit to neighbouring WhiteWater World and you’ll have the perfect holiday experience, with something that will appeal to every member of the family.

Dreamworld is also home to some of the world's most threatened species – white and gold Bengal and Sumatran tigers, who live in their own sanctuary, Tiger Island. This is the largest interactive tiger facility outside the United States and visitors can watch these magnificent, rare animals play, wrestle and even swim with their handlers without the constraint of wire and steel bars. Look out for Indah and Rahni, adorable baby Sumatran tiger cubs born at Dreamworld in March 2007, as they bounce around the park on daily walks with their handlers.

Animal Attractions

The wildlife encounters continue at the Australian Wildlife Experience, home to over 800 native animals and birds. Have your photo taken with adorable koalas and kangaroos and meet another rare and handsome fellow – Frank, the world’s only known blue-eyed koala. This adorable little guy was born in April 2007, but it’s only recently that he’s ventured out from his mother’s pouch and revealed his incredible blue peepers.

Facilities

There are over 13 restaurants, cafes and snack bars to keep hunger at bay during your visit to Dreamworld. There are also many shops for souvenirs, camera essentials, clothing and merchandise.
