We’ve got some exciting news — and it’s going to make a big splash this summer at Discovery Parks & Resorts - West Beach Parks!💦 In January, we’re opening a brand-new poolside oasis exclusively for guests at our Holiday Park, designed especially for our littlest swimmers (and their parents). We know you already love our zero-depth water park, but we’re taking it up a level! With a $3 million upgrade, we’re adding a sparkling new toddler pool and making some upgrades to the water park too. Designed for safe, family-friendly fun, this new space is set to make both big and little waves across our Holiday Park this summer. Our much-loved mascot Sonny the Starfish is busy brainstorming names, but we need your help! Share your ideas for a name for our new water park and you could be part of its story.

Adelaide locals Kayla and Dominic Green recently treated their little ones, Elaina (5) and Logan (4), to a glamping getaway at The Retreat at West Beach Parks — all to celebrate Elaina’s fifth birthday! 🎉 Kayla fondly remembers staying at our Holiday Park as a child, but this was her first visit to The Retreat — and her first time sharing it with her own family. Elaina and Logan thought the Safari Tent was “the coolest thing ever!” and couldn’t get enough of the bunk beds. Between slow mornings, silly games, shared meals and spontaneous adventures, the Greens loved disconnecting from screens and reconnecting with each other. As Kayla put it: “It’s the little things… being present and making memories that we’ll talk about for years to come.” Affordable, family-friendly and oh-so-fun, their glamping adventure was such a hit that they’re already recommending it to friends and family.

Happy Father's Day! Today, we’re celebrating all the amazing dads across West Beach Park, and of course, no Father’s Day would be complete without a few classic dad jokes! We asked our team of dads to share their favourites, and they didn’t disappoint… 😅Dion: Why does Noel take extra socks when golfing? He might get a hole in one! 😆Stephen: So why did your doctor tell you to give up golf? Did he check your heart? No, he checked my scorecard. 🤣Vinnie: What's a shark's favourite saying? "Man overboard!" 😄Nathan: What does a golfer’s diet consist of? A lot of greens and water. Which one gets your vote? Or better yet, share your own dad joke with us in the comments!

T minus one week until spring, and oh, how we’ve missed you! 🌼 If you’ve been craving sunshine, fresh air, and a little time for yourself, The Pat GC is calling. Whether you're new to golf or already love a casual hit, spring is the perfect time to get back on the green. Stick to the driving range or take on the course — either way, you’ll be treated to blue skies, sea breezes, and that unbeatable feeling of being outdoors (with a coffee in hand, of course). Make a day of it and bring a friend, enjoy a post-round drink at Westward Ho Golf Club's newly renovated Sprig Bar, and soak up the best of West Beach Parks. The best part? The Pat GC is open to the public — no membership needed. Just good vibes, great company, and the game we love⛳ Visit https://bit.ly/3XggcR1 for more info about the course.
