The Gold Coast is celebrated for the picture-perfect mix of long sandy beaches, surf breaks and theme park thrills. Explore the laidback ocean-front neighbourhoods and the vibrant food and drink scene. Wander off the beaten track and into the greenery of ancient rainforests, welcoming wildlife sanctuaries and hidden walking trails.
#PlayGoldCoast
The attractions of the Gold Coast bring smiles to people of all ages and stages. With exhilarating rides, exotic animals and endless waterslides to help you cool off on hot summer days, your Gold Coast holiday offers a full spectrum of interactive entertainment – from dazzling big budget Gold Coast theme parks to small, hilariously kitsch museums.
Visit the iconic Surfers Paradise beach and sophisticated dining precincts of Main Beach and Broadbeach. If you’re looking for something a little more calming, head to the lush, green Hinterland where a new experience is waiting for you at every turn. Theme parks, world-renowned beaches and year-round sunshine are just a few of the reasons why the Gold Coast makes for the perfect getaway.
