    It's located along the Pacific Highway (A1), so no detour to do. Good place to stop, revive, survive! =D

    Lots of things to do at the Big Banana, the gift shop was very pricey for the types of things they had.

    Disappointing. Banana not that big! Souvenir shop full of trashy stock. Bit of a disgrace by international standards. Hell, by any standards. Time for a serious upgrade.

    Best to go with family! I came here by myself and was bored out of my mind... then again, I've been here about 15 times in my life already.

    Try buying tickets for ice skating, water park and toboggan online. Saves lining up for tickets.

    They don't sell dried banana chips at the Big Banana! Go figure.

    Toboggan opens at 9 in school hols. Do them, and then the 10am waterslide session. Much shorter queues than later in the day.
