Experience the enriching energy of the Gold Coast. World-famous beaches beckon visitors to grab a surfboard and embrace the barefoot, salty-hair lifestyle. Surrounded by World Heritage-listed rainforest that predates the dinosaurs, stepping off the sand leads to rushing waterfalls and enchanting adventures.
A place to play, party and uncover local secrets, let the Gold Coast entertain you from dawn until well after dark – it’s the perfect place to create lifelong memories.
Gold Coast has an international airport and is well connected to other Australian hot spots.
