Sun,
surf, sand and vibrant city
sights greet the eager Gold Coast
holiday-maker. Australias
no.1 tourist destination offers
breath-taking rainforest
retreats, luxurious beaches and a
world of fun and adventure for
the whole family. Shop til
you drop or go on a hinterland
exploration - its all
waiting for you on the glorious
Gold Coast! Surfers Paradise
While proximity to
highrises, nightclubs,
restaurants and shops are major
drawcards for Surfers Paradise
beachgoers, the clean white sand
and sparkling surf don't hurt
either. Broadbeach
Kurrawa beach at Broadbeach is
one of the coast's favourite
family beaches. With a wide
expanse of clean sand to spread
out on and a large flagged area,
this one is best for dippers and
sandgropers. Burleigh Heads
Burleigh's protected,
patrolled swimming area, clean
sandy beach, top point break,
well-equipped foreshore and
proximity to Burleigh Heads CBD
tick all the boxes.Main Beach
The most northerly of the
city's main beaches, the suburb
of Main Beach and its well, main
beach, enjoy a somewhat quieter
profile than its popular
neighbours, Surfers Paradise and
Broadbeach. Duranbah
Occupying the patch between Point
Danger and the Tweed River
entrance, Duranbah beach - or
D'bah as it's known to locals -
is best-known for its surf break.
Snapper Rocks Once known
for its fishing, Snapper Rocks
has evolved into the Gold Coast's
most famous surf spot - a classy,
consistent point break that also
offers one of the world's longest
rides. Rainbow Bay
Nestled between Greenmount Hill
and Snapper Rocks, Rainbow Bay is
naturally beautiful and has
something for everyone - surfers,
families, sun-lovers, swimmers
and kids. Currumbin South
of the border, Currumbin offers a
three-for-one deal - Currumbin
Lake and Creek, Currumbin Alley
and Currumbin Beach - making it a
good choice for those in need of
variety. The Broadwater
OK, so it's not a beach, but the
flat body of tidal water between
Southport in the south and
Biggera Waters in the north, and
its foreshore, is among the
city's most utilised outdoor
areas.
