The Family Find

The last one though… we just stumbled across it, and it was absolutely spectacular at sunset. The Gold Coast is so much more than Surfers Paradise and its beautiful beaches. From hidden lookouts to peaceful nature spots, there’s so much to explore. We loved our recent trip and can’t wait to come back to discover even more. Which spot would you add to this list? Let us know in the comments so we can check it out on our next visit! ⬇️ ENJOY x @thefamilyfind

The fist time we tried to do this hike a storm rolled in and we got stuck on the side of the mountain for quite sometime as the track turned into waterfalls, so when we told the boys we were only 40 minutes away on our recent trip to the Sun y Coast they said we had to go back to get it finished because ‘the Francis family doesn’t fail’ haha. If you’re new here, welcome. We are an Australian based travel family and love to share our family adventures. Follow along @thefamilyfind for more! This hike is only 3km in total, but definitely a leg burner. I wouldn’t recommend this walk for those with small children or anyone with knee issues. It’s pretty intense, but our boys absolutely loved it (the harder the better right?) 📍This one’s Mt Coorora, 30 minutes inland from Noosa. Please let people know where you’re heading before you climb, check the weather (do not start the trail if it looks like rain), take water, where good grip shoes and keep the environment pristine. Remember, what you take in must come out! ENJOY x

We still can’t believe people go to the Gold Coast and don’t visit this iconic national park just 30 minutes south of Surfers Paradise! If you’re new here, welcome! Follow along @thefamilyfind for more. What’s great about the national park is that the oceanview track is super accessible and pram and wheelchair friendly which allows everyone to experience its beauty. We loved linking the oceanview track with the rainforest circuit via Tumgun lookout for an easy 3.1km stroll. We stopped half way at Tallebudgera creek for a play with the kids which was so beautiful! One for the buck list friends! 📍This is Burleigh Head National Park

Definitely a family that lives by the FIBI motto! Who’s with us? Before people come at me in the comments, we never spend money we don’t have but we do also very much prioritise travel and adventure as a family! Also Reuben mimed the swear words and it isn’t a normal word in his vocabulary, but also thought this was very funny. If this sounds like you don’t forget to say hi in the comment and give @thefamilyfind a follow for more family adventure and travel. Who’s with us?

And if I was a betting lady I bet they’ll look back and say ‘I’m so glad that lunatic is my mum!’ Or at a minimum I’ll be spending the rest of their childhood working towards that response! Who’s with me? Give @thefamilyfind a follow to see all of our adventures and to help plan your next one too!
