Slip, slop and slap-down poolside at The Great Australia Day BBQ on South Stradbroke Island.
Grab your togs, towels, sunhats, sunscreen and the kids and head along to The Ramada Couran Cove Island Resort for a full day of entertainment and family sports. Just 15 minutes from Gold Coast's Surfers Paradise, Couran Cove is an island of relaxation and rejuvenation.
Unwind to singer-guitar legend Chris Palmer live on The Marina Deck or get down on The Lagoon Deck with DJ Darren James' Top 100 Ozzie Tracks. Lounge by the pool or get amongst a little friendly competition with beach cricket, thong Olympics and the Mud Crab Classic.
Feast your heart out with tasty treats available all day from executive chef Chris McIntyre who will serve up his world-famous – and drool worthy – Junee Gold Lamb Sausage infused with roasted macadamia nut, native pepper berries and garlic infused roasted onions. Or indulge in a three hour Australia Day BBQ luncheon with a full buffet of mini dampers, salads, lamingtons, pavolva, chocolate fountain and tropical fruit.
Getting to Couran Cove is as easy as it is beautiful with daily ferry rides from Hope Harbour and water taxis from any where on the Gold Coast. Festivities kick-off at 11am and celebrations rock on until late.
The Great Australia Day BBQ takes place Sunday 25 January at The Ramada Couran Cove Island Resort.
