The park is situated at the location of the former Sunshine Coast Aqua Park site.
The water depth in the lake is strictly monitored to ensure safety during falls from the inflatables.
The floating obstacles are anchored to the lake bed to maintain specific course layouts.
The park is built on a site that previously functioned as a water-skiing facility.
Aqua Park Coolum is a floating inflatable water park located on a man-made lake at the base of Mount Coolum on the Sunshine Coast. The obstacle course features a series of interconnected slides, climbing walls, trampolines, and balance beams floating on the water surface. Participants must navigate through tunnels and over slippery bridges to traverse the course. The facility uses a private lake setting rather than an open ocean beach, providing calmer water conditions. Life jackets are provided as mandatory safety equipment for all guests regardless of swimming ability. The park is designed for both children and adults to navigate simultaneously.
