About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- funkyfamilyof50 contributionsAaron the Sandcastle masterWhat a fantastic morning we had learning how to make castles and mermaid tails with Aaron . The kids loved it , the adults loved it even more. Aaron was amazing . He has such a pleasant , calm manner about him, he is really such a lovely guy doing what he loves . He showed us what to do and how to do it and made it look so easy . I would highly recommend doing a sandcastle workshop with him.Written 4 January 2020
- LenaFelicia0 contributionsCoolest thing to do in NoosaWe have done it wrong all these years! In just two hours, Arron taught us all the tricks needed for making sand masterpieces. We were seven in our group, my son (11) and I, a mother with two younger kids, and a retired couple. It was hard to tell who enjoyed it the most; we were all completely absorbed with the task... A must do for all ages!Written 13 November 2019
- Denny0140 contributionsMUST DO ACTIVITY Noosa Main BeachIt seems a bit indulgent to pay for a lesson when there's a whole beach to just get out and practise on, but this lesson is an ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER. I did it with my 11 year old and we had a great time and learned the skills that will take us to Next Level Sandcastle Building. Aaron was a fantastic teacher and shared tips and tricks that will make your next creation so much more impressive. He showed as a small array of simple tools that make all the difference - and nothing special, all available very cheaply at Bunnings or Kmart. I only wish I'd done this when I was 10. 40 years wasted with incompetency!Written 4 October 2019
- pschell710 contributionsFantastic morningMy 7 year old son and I spent a really enjoyable morning learning some great skills. Highly recommended for both adults and children...it will transform the way you create sandcastles.Written 3 October 2019
- Saltandearth0 contributionsMust doThe girls just loved it! So cool to be shown another way to experience the diversity of the beautiful golden sands of Noosa beach by getting creative with Arron rather than just lying on the sand! Thanks guys, you rock.Written 23 September 2019
- ben_global0 contributionsSandshapers Sandcastle WorkshopOur family of five really liked this sandcastle workshop and are looking forward to taking our new skills to our local beach in SA this summer!Written 30 July 2019
- Pitbullstanding0 contributionsFab funOur family really enjoyed this. Make sure you take a hat, suncream and sunglasses as it’s bright and hot!!Written 1 January 2019
- Alana C0 contributionsSo much fun!Spent the morning learning how to make sandcastles and a dragon. Had such a fun time, Aaron was really friendly and a good teacher. Highly recommend booking in a lesson and I’d even love to do it again!Written 20 December 2018
- allis0nd0dd0 contributionsParty EntertainmentFor my 50th I had a lunch at a Noosa beachfront restaurant. Aaron held a sandcastle masterclass with all of the kids which they absolutely loved. The parents got to relax and enjoy the day and the kids were just in front of the venue so we could keep an eye on them. With ages ranging from 5 to 14 it suited them all. Can’t recommend it enough.Written 27 October 2018
- Makermum0 contributionsUnique holiday experienceMy 11 year old saw some of Arron’s exquisite sand castles in Noosa main beach when we arrived and was super excited to do a class with him. It was worth every cent! Arron is a excellent teacher and the kids were focused and learnt lots of tips and tricks to take their sand castle making to the next level. They stayed and elaborated on their work playing together after the class finished.Written 9 October 2018
- Glennis W0 contributionsWorth every cent!My 9 year old son was in heaven when he spent time with Aaron building sandcastles. He would have attended every day if he was allowed. What a great way to get the kids away from their electronics and outside working with their hands.Written 5 October 2018
- Daisylaurel0 contributionsFantastic afternoon!We had such a great time learning about sand sculpture on the beach and were amazed at what we built! Aaron is a very patient teacher and all of the kids were completely engrossed for the entire 2 hours. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting Noosa!Written 2 October 2018
- Sunl0ver740 contributionsFantastic afternoonReally enjoyable afternoon. The kids all really loved the activity. The parents hung back and relaxed. It was nice to wander over and engage with the kids about their creation. Highly recommended!Written 2 October 2018
- Ben_Traveller_700 contributionsLoved it. A unique and amazing experienceKids wouldn’t stop talking about the lesson and showed everyone on the beach their creation. I think one of them wants to get a sandcastle apprenticeship. We highly recommend this amazing experience to anyone.Written 1 October 2018
- kayekimber0 contributionsA Great MorningChildren’s comments. It was amazing! I learnt much more than I thought I would. I’ll definitely use these skills in the future.Written 29 September 2018

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My 6 and 8 year old loved the sandcastle workshop!
One of the TOP activities of their trip to Queensland.
Worth every penny, they were fully engaged for the whole 90 mins and delighted with what they built.
Thanks very much for a great morning.

Before finding the listing for Sandshapers I had no idea I needed lessons would make such a difference. Thought it looked like fun so why not give it a go! Turns out everyone needs this workshop!
Arron's knowledge was outstanding & his explanations clear and easy to follow. It's an exceptionally hands on workshop and Arron was there with us every step of the way.
I can't begin to tell you how much fun this was plus the sense of accomplishment at the end was wonderful. We have new skills well use forever and an experience we'll be telling friends and family about for a long time.
We'd recommend this workshop to all ages and abilities.

What a fabulous teacher. Aaron showed us tips and tricks to give our future sandcastles that “wow” factor. We all enjoyed it so much. Today my 7 year old grandson decided he wanted to make a snake at the beach and was able to use the skills he learnt the day before. Thank you Aaron.
