Great Thai food, and free delivery to our house if you spend more than $35, otherwise there is a $5 delivery fee. Located at the Clifton Beach Shopping Centre only 2 mins drive from here. Great if you want a lazy night in, and can't be bothered going out.

It’s not a zoo, it’s an experience and there’s a lot to see. See the elusive Cassowary native to our area and hug a Koala. Learn about conservation of crocodiles and see them close up.... in action at feeding time on the water.
