Gold Coast - Location Report

WHAT  

WHERE 

 GOLD COAST  

Surfers Paradise - Gold Coast

QUINTESSENTIAL GOLD COAST

There's so much more to the Gold Coast than just the well known Surfers Paradise - which in itself has some great gems to explore. Working on the Gold Coast gives an ideal opportunity to look around the stunning countryside and coastline, and make the most of the great climate, enjoy amazing food and get stuck in to exciting adventure pursuits.

ENJOY A GOOD STATISTIC?

The Gold Coast averages 245 days of sunny weather each year. The average rainfall is around 1400mm annually, the majority of which falls in the summer period which runs from December - February. Generally, the Gold Coast temperatures are in the mid 20°C range - Hotter over the summer months.

RIGHT IN THE HEART OF IT

The Gold Coast's famous Surfers Paradise is an astonishing sight. Tall buildings almost on the beach itself, rising into the sky. Shops, bars, restaurants, hotels and businesses; it's the hub of the coast. Wander the streets and check out the places that appeal, or look at one of the sites below to plan out some really special events or adventures.

Check out the Surfers Paradise Beachfront markets, held every Wednesday and Friday night between 5:30pm and 10:00pm. With more than 120 market stalls which stretch across half a kilometre of beachfront promenade, you'll see local artists and crafts people, find gifts and great souvenirs.

THE LONG, LONG COAST

Beaches are plentiful, varied and well utilised by Gold Coast locals as well as the hoards of holiday makers who love coming here every year. Surfers Paradise is one beach but head north or south and you've got a myriad of smaller, seaside towns to explore and beaches to swim, surf, walk and play on. With 57 kilometres of Gold Coast to choose from, you'll always have options galore.

Burleigh Heads is a great place to start. South of Surfers Paradise and north of Coolangatta Airport - the main access point to the Gold Coast; Burleigh is a thriving town with a surf and healthy living culture. Go there for raw-food restaurants and cutting edge healthy juice and smoothie bars. A wonderful market pops up every Saturday morning where you'll find the best in fresh, organic produce, food products, health gurus and natural health and beauty products.
Other key beaches to seek out are Mermaid Beach, Miami Beach and Palm Beach, all south of Surfers Paradise. National parks provide beautiful walks and views up and down the long stretch of coast.

HINTERLAND - EXPLORE & ENJOY

A short drive inland from the broader Gold Coast region opens up a whole new world of sight seeing including small farming villages and markets. Take a car - there are plenty of rental car companies on the Gold Coast that are available for pick up either at the airport, or in the town centres. Drive out and meander, stop for a walk here and there and just enjoy the lush, green, jungle and farmland visible from the many roads that weave up and away from the coast.

FARMERS' MARKETS & PRODUCE

The warm climate here means great produce and wonderful food. Whether in restaurants and cafes, or buying fresh to cook at home, you'll be spoilt for choice, all year long. To make sure you're getting the very best, the freshest and most local food, the farmers' markets are the place to go. Check out the website for details and locations. Go there hungry and enjoy coffee, breakfast or lunch there while you're shopping.
