For many Sunshine Coast residents a regular visit to DOUBLE ISLAND POINT OR RAINBOW BEACH is a must to reconnect with nature, take a dip in the ocean and enjoy the scenic views. The area is part of the Great Sandy National Park and if you haven’t already visited – or it’s been a few years since you were last there – it really is worth exploring. And we’ve found a fantastic way to do just that. Epic Ocean Adventures offers a range of adventures, including the Dolphin View Kayak Tour. There’s much to enjoy on the tour, including the chance to see not just dolphins but also turtles, rays and even whales if you time it right.

AUSSIE WORLD has recently introduced a new thrill ride called the SX360. It is, Aussie World tells us, Australia’s tallest and fastest 360-degree pendulum swing that cost the park $2.5 million. It is also the first new ride to open there since 2011. This ride is not for the fainthearted – it reaches speeds of 80 kilometres per hour and launches riders 32 metres into the air. Make sure you jump on it before you eat! The SX360 joins Aussie World’s other thrilling rides including The Wasp, The Plunge and The Redback. Aussie World is at 1 Downunder Drive, Palmview. 5494 5444 aussieworld.com.au Map reference M18
