Destination guide

Them's the breaks – a seaside dream in Surfers Paradise

Time to make like the Karate Kid and wax on – you'll want your board in prime condition by the time you hit the waves at Surfers Paradise. Along the Coral Sea on Queensland's Gold Coast, the waterfront resort is a serious summer vacation destination. Surfers Paradise features plenty of dining, nightlife and entertainment, as well as sandy beaches and a bounty of truly bodacious surfing (we're still saying "bodacious", right?) You can find Surfers Paradise vacation rentals with everything you'll need for the perfect seaside getaway, from beach access and sea views to outdoor showers, board storage and more.

Things to do

Beyond the beaches – what to see in Surfers Paradise

After you've shown the waves (or the shops) who's boss, you'll find plenty of other worthwhile sights in Surfers Paradise. For a unique perspective, visit the Q1 building's SkyPoint Observation Deck, a 230-metre-high lookout that offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. The animal shows and marine life exhibits at Sea World are a big hit with families, and you can also find roller coasters, water rides and other entertainment throughout the park. Or you could get a closer look at local plant life at the Gold Coast Regional Botanic Gardens, where you'll find 31 hectares of flora.

Activities

Real swell(s) – epic waves in Surfers Paradise

They weren't fooling around when they called it Surfers Paradise – the breaks here are just as gnarly as you're likely to find in these parts.

The beach also hosts a regular open-air market throughout the week. And if it's shopping you're looking for, you're in luck – the central pedestrian mall on Cavill Avenue is home to numerous shops, as well as cafes, nightclubs and dining.
