The Gold Coast is Australia’s fun-loving party playground, where miles of golden beaches are backed by a plethora of activities from theme parks to national parks, shopping to nightlife. A great place to learn to surf, this is the ideal spot for a beach break Aussie-style, with different parts of the coast having different charms and character - there really is something for everyone on the Gold Coast.
At the heart of the Gold Coast is Surfers Paradise, home to the 2018 Commonwealth Games and a full-on mix of beach scene & nightlife, where skyscrapers back the golden sands. Elsewhere the Gold Coast becomes more relaxed - Broadbeach is more chic, Burleigh Heads oozes charm and Coolangatta is laid–back surfer vibe.
