If you are in Mackay and you enjoy water sports then Wakehouse is a must visit. Great facilities, staff that are passionate about wakeboarding and great coffee and food from the lakeside cafe. Also the aquapark is a great option to get the kids out on the water.
2. Castaway Bay

We enjoyed our time in Castaway Bay and returned a couple of times. The Battle Boats were a lot of fun - the kids went on the boats and enjoyed spraying other boats with their cannons, and I stayed on the edge and squirted the boats as they went past. We all played and climbed on the Sky Fortress - lots of fun, and a little challenging for those scared of heights. It's a big adventure playground and kids (and adults) could easily spend a lot of time exploring it. We put our names down for the Sky Climb (as only so many people can go on it at a time) and hung around the precinct until it was our time to climb - it was a pleasant wait, watching the Battle Boats and water play, and eating lunch at one of the many tables, climbing on the Sky Fortress when we wanted a bit of activity. There are food and drink venues and toilets there as well. The Sky Climb was fun although definitely more challenging - we all clipped in to harnesses and climbed up to the first level. From there it's possible to go in any direction you like and just do the activity at a level you are comfortable with. Some of the kids went up to the 2nd or 3rd level, some of us stayed down on the first level and walked across the balancing apparatus. It was a lot of fun and felt very safe.

Really good place to swim, both for the kids and the lap swimmers. Loads of space and it's nicely protected from the waves
9. Wave Lagoon
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,392 reviews
One of the Waterfront's coolest attractions is the Wave Lagoon: a palm-fringed swimming pool that turns into a tube-riding, boogie-boarding bucket of fun when the waves roll in every 20 minutes. The fully patrolled Wave Lagoon is two metres at its deepest point and slopes to a shallow area of still water, perfect for families. Bring your book: there are plenty of banana lounges, beach umbrellas and shady patches of lawn. Aqua Zumba classes every Sunday from 9am are a HUGE hit with tourists and locals alike.

10. Darwin Waterfront
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3,007 reviews
There is fun for everyone at the Darwin Waterfront. Home to the wave pool, where you can attempt to ride the waves - and a waterfront lagoon for safe beachside swimming. The Waterfront encompasses many fresh, local food options, including Mexican, seafood and Asian. Stokes Hill Wharf is a short walk across the bridge where you can grab some local fish and chips and watch the sunset.
