It should be a scientific fact 🧪 that if you've got kids and you're coming to Emerald, a visit to Outback Exploratorium is essential!

We love this mini guide by travelling family @our3souls on Instagram:
💎 animals roam free: camels, brolga, horses, guineafowl, cows
💎 you can find sapphires in the local riverbed (like we did) along with other gems (so be sure to visit the river as well as the attractions. our fave was Rubyvale Miners Cottage, such good value)
💎 the locals are all a friendly knowledgeable bunch
💎 there is a awesome free camp behind the Sapphire Central skate park (the toilet cleanliness puts most parks to shame. we met some rad people we will remember forever)
