Get the whole family egg-cited for Easter at Sanctuary Cove

While for many of us Easter is an excuse to eat our weight in chocolate, it also is a time we can be with family and have a little fun. Luckily, Sanctuary Cove has raised its hand to be the number one location to celebrate Easter with the family this year.


Skip, hop and jump to Sanctuary Cove on Easter Sunday (March 31) for a day filled with free family-friendly activities that will keep you and the kids entertained all the way to Easter Monday.

Kids can enjoy pony rides, an animal petting zoo, craft activities, face painting and interactive Easter shows where the Easter Bunny will make an appearance too. Grab a basket and head to The Marine Village for an Easter egg hunt like no other. Rather than scavenging for chocolate eggs, participants will find hidden treasures in the form of codewords to be in the running to win one of three decadent chocolate hampers. Registration is essential for the Easter egg hunt and you can make a booking via the Sanctuary Cove website

This is the perfect alternative to making yourself sick with chocolate, but if you do find yourself in a chocolate coma by lunchtime, you can embrace it by taking a peaceful train ride around The Marine Village, or cruising the surrounding tranquil waters on board the Kilkie ferry.

Jump on back to Sanctuary Cove on Easter Monday for a movie night at The Docks Precinct. Gather you love bunnies and lay out your picnic rug to watch Peter Rabbit on the big screen. This is a free event but to get the best picnic spot you must book ahead of the day.

Hop to it and get along to Sanctuary Cove this Easter to join in on all the fun.
