About The Gold Coast

If you like sun, surf and sand, a friendly, relaxed lifestyle and lots of tourist attractions, then you’ll love the Gold Coast. With its stunning combination of world-famous beaches, sub-tropical rainforest and the green valleys of Mount Tamborine, it is among the most popular tourist destinations in the world.

Attractions

Of course, the Gold Coast's main attraction is its beaches. Take a healthy walk along the Oceanway promenades, or have a go at all kinds of water sports. After a studious day learning English, you might simply want to lie back and enjoy the sun.

The Gold Coast is also very good for theme parks. Get wet and wild at a water park or enter the world of film at Movie World. For a quieter time, visit a nature reserve where you can see possums, koalas, kangaroos and other native animals.

If you like shopping, the Gold Coast won't disappoint. Markets, shopping malls and department stores await.
