Golden Mile

The Golden Mile extends along the Marine Parade with the Snell Parade to the north and Erskine Parade to the south. The beaches are the main attraction and contrast well with the strong skyline. There are restaurants, entertainment and amenities galore, but, beyond the beach-front development, the area becomes somewhat seedy and should be treated with caution after dark. The Seaworld Aquarium is an established attraction and includes over 1,000 fish, with sharks, dolphins, seals and penguins too. The oft-photographed Zulu and Rickshaw Men can be found nearby: a curious emblem of this culturally diverse city.
