Here’s some ideas to inspire your gift giving, whether it’s for a birthday or just to show you care…

Who doesn’t love flying through the air on a ziplines and flying foxes? Get your teen out of the house and active with one of these fun high-rise activities. There are some awesome views and the feeling of shooting through the trees is a real adrenaline rush at Australia-wide locations.

For teens with a real sense of adventure, swimming with sharks has to be up there when it comes to ‘must-do’ experiences. Choose from a range of options, including diving with sharks at an aquarium or swimming with whale sharks in the wild. Some age restrictions apply, so check your teen is old enough for the experience you like the look of before booking.

Let them step into a different world with a virtual reality experience. There are thrilling team-based adventures perfect for teens and their mates (or even to enjoy as a family), as well as thrilling solo experiences like racing simulations and even indoor skydiving with a VR headset.

Go karting

The rush of go karting is perfect for teenagers. Get a group together and put driving skills to the test to find out who’s fastest on the track. Teenagers who like getting competitive playing video games will love racing around the track in a kart, wearing a helmet and race overalls to really look and feel like a racing driver.

Jet boat ride

Forget the usual scenic boat cruises and give the gift of a jet boat ride. These turbo-charged trips across the water feature plenty of twists, turns and manoeuvres, making them the fastest, most thrilling way to see the sights. Just choose your location! Options include Sydney Harbour, Cairns, Mooloolaba, Airlie Beach and Surfers Paradise.

Kayaking or Stand Up Paddle Boarding

One of the best ways to get out and have fun exploring has to be by taking to the water. Teens can get active and cause a splash by going kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding at locations across Australia.
