Very popular place for locals. Has a few restaurants, big screens to watch sport, indoor sky diving, and the stadium is across the road. I think it is overrated, but worth a look to say you've been.

Classic Australia. This place is very run down and just a no-frills way to hit golf balls into a large dirt yard. Not for everyone, but I love it.
