Harbourtown is a favourite of mine there is a huge selection of outlet stores and dining options. Be sure to check out their Eat Street, this is a strip of Asian hawkers market style Street food precinct combined with a beer garden. Totally love the Noodle King a favourite dish of mine is Cumin Beef Noodle with a lil spice. The fruit shop area at the entrance is also open 24 hours. The drive here is 7.3km from the apartment so roughly about 15minute drive not far at all.

Seaworld is the premier marine animal park on the Gold Coast. The park includes rides, animal exhibits and other attractions. A must see is the Dolphin & Seal shows 👌
I would recommend taking a packed lunch as food isn't cheap on top of the entry fee but still a great day out.
