Gold Coast Beaches
When it comes to beaches, the Gold Coast steps it up.
With awesome waves, laid-back waterfront dining and plenty of space to stretch out and relax, beachside bliss isn't hard to find on the Gold Coast.
Hit up some of Australia's most famous surf spots or find your own patch of paradise. From glitzy resort getaways to trips to secluded campsites, the Gold Coast has got a beach for every adventure under the sun.
Check the swell at the aptly named Surfers Paradise Beach, overlooked by a sky-scraping coastline. Keep that surfboard waxed up - Kurrawa Beach, Currumbin, Duranbah Beach and Burleigh Beach are renowned for having steady swell. Try beach fishing or take a stroll around coastal parklands and pine-studded bluffs.
To the south, Coolangatta's dramatic headland provides the perfect location for sun worshippers and surf chasers. Rainbow Bay, Greenmount and Kirra have sheltered waters that are perfect for swimming with the family. Splash in the waves with the kids or explore the waterfront playgrounds.
