Attractions & Activities

There is no comparison to the Gold Coast’s choice of activities and experiences that continue to evolve every day. It is an offering which has been built over generations and will hold the city well into the future. Choose your own adventure in Australia’s adventure playground. Many travellers think they know what to expect on Australia’s Gold Coast; the brilliant beaches, the Surfers Paradise nightlife and dozens of theme parks. But there’s much more to explore than the traditional travel guides are willing to admit.

Enjoying an ideal year round climate and an amazing variety of natural landscapes, including 57 kilometres of famous beach and 100,000 hectares of World Heritage-listed rainforest, the region has been attracting visitors since first settlement.

There are more attractions on the Gold Coast than any other city in the southern hemisphere. So if you want anything in the way of theme parks or indigenous kayak tours, wreck diving or parasailing, swimming with the sharks or cuddling a koala; you can do it on the Gold Coast and it is all within 40 minutes drive.

After all that daytime adventure, you may just want to relax in your room listening to the waves wash upon the shore. Or experience the Gold Coast nightlife as the city’s bars, clubs, restaurants and attractions draw locals and visitors out into the sparkling night. It’s big-city nightlife 365 nights a year, but if you want something more, there is always a touring international act, football game, music festival or the like happening so you can join the carnival when events arrive in town. It’s easy to see why a Gold Coast holiday is the popular choice. Families, couples, business delegates and solo travellers will all find an experience to suit their needs and budget on the Gold Coast.

We all love the big theme parks and sunny beaches, but many people forget about all of the other attractions that makes the Gold Coast such a well-rounded and varied holiday destination. Today, underrated Gold Coast attractions such as winery tours, walking trails, Broadwater cruises and mountain drives are just as popular as the theme parks and beaches.
