The park features over 600 meters of inflatable pathways and obstacles.
It is strategically placed in a shallow section of the Broadwater to minimize deep-water risks while maintaining water depth for safety.
The course is reconfigured periodically to change the layout and flow for returning visitors.
The facility is designed for high-intensity physical activity and typically requires significant upper body strength to navigate the more difficult obstacles.
GC Aqua Park is a massive inflatable water park located in the Southport Broadwater, featuring a sprawling obstacle course of slides, tunnels, and balance beams. The attraction utilizes a modular design that floats directly on the saltwater of the Gold Coast Broadwater, managed by professional lifeguards. Participants navigate interconnected inflatable structures that require physical climbing, jumping, and sliding across the water's surface. It is designed to accommodate various skill levels through sections ranging from easy to challenging. The facility is anchored securely to the sea floor but remains buoyant for dynamic movement. Guests must traverse a designated walkway to reach the starting platform from the beach. Safety gear, specifically life jackets, is provided and required for all individuals entering the course.
