Why go on the SkyPoint Climb?

Australia's highest external building climb

The SkyPoint Climb is an open-air adventure not for the faint-hearted. Those who take it on ascend to the top of the Q1 Tower’s spire, with a summit achievement that stays with them long after.

360° views you won't find anywhere else

The 360° views from the heart of Surfers Paradise extend down to the New South Wales border and out to the magnificent, lush Gold Coast Hinterland.

Expert guides every step of the way

Your climb leader accompanies you throughout, sharing landmarks, local stories, and Gold Coast history, and captures group and individual photos along the way.

Free observation deck access included

Climbers receive one complimentary entry to SkyPoint Observation Deck on the date of their climb, perfect for celebrating the accomplishment with friends at the Bar & Cafe afterwards.

Tailored to your thrill level

Prefer to play it safe? Stick to the internal handrail. Feeling bold? Step to the edge and face a 270-metre sheer vertical drop. The Climb works for every courage level.

A moment worth celebrating

After the climb, your complimentary Observation Deck entry lets you celebrate the achievement in style, grab a drink at the SkyPoint Bar & Cafe and relive the highlights with your group.

The Skypoint Observation Deck is a must visit attraction when you're in Gold Coast. The views from up there are truly mesmerising. Being the only beach side observation in Australia, it truly sets a world class standard for tourism. I've loved every bit of my experience with Skypoint. The staff was super friendly and helpful. There is a cafe at the top if you want to soak in the sights with a cup of coffee. I 100% recommend this place.

Dreamworld QLD was honestly AMAZING! From the moment we walked in the vibe was fun and exciting, and there was so much to do that we easily spent the whole day there. The rides were unreal — a perfect mix of adrenaline and classic theme park fun — and the park was clean, well set out and easy to get around. The staff were friendly and helpful, the atmosphere was great, and it just felt like such a good day out with non-stop laughs. If you’re on the Gold Coast and want a proper theme park experience, Dreamworld is 100% worth it — I’d go back again in a heartbeat! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Booking through Headout was really easy and smooth. Entry to the park was quick and there were no issues with the tickets. The rides were very exciting, especially DC Rivals, which was my favourite. The place was well organised and the staff were helpful. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience and I would recommend Headout to others.
