With all the soft sand, dazzling blue water and sunshine you could dream of, why wouldn’t you head to the Gold Coast? Head to the ‘Glitter Strip’ of Surfers Paradise and see what makes this beach so famous, with beachside accommodation, a superb restaurant and entertainment scene and 7 day late night shopping, what’s not to love. For something a little quieter head to Broadbeach, with its beautiful beaches and framed by lazy parks. It seems a new restaurant or bar is opening every time you blink, you will be spoilt for choice with eating options to keep your belly full. There’s a reason the Gold Coast is famous for fun! Known as the theme park capital of Australia – spend your days making your way through the five theme parks on the Gold Coast, with thrill rides galore, stunt and animal shows and plenty of family fun to be had. But it’s not just theme parks that make the Gold Coast fun; get to know the Australian wildlife at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary and hold a koala or hand feed a kangaroo, experience Jet Boating ‘Aussie Style’ on the Gold Coast Broadwater or take in a dinner show and the famous Dracula’s Cabaret Restaurant. Nature lovers head inland to Mt. Tamborine, known as the ‘green behind the gold’ and experience another side of the Gold Coast. With the third oldest National Park in the world, numerous walks, lookouts, home-grown produce, spas and art galleries, there’s something for everyone.
