The Gold Coast remains as one of Australia's favourite destinations to take the family on a holiday. A combination of golden beaches, a green mountain hinterland and the most varied theme attractions in Australia, make Queensland's Gold Coast the nation's most popular holiday playground.
Sixty-five kilometres south east of Brisbane is a tourist mecca - the Gold Coast. The region's 42km coastline stretches from Southport to Coolangatta and basks in more than 300 days of sunshine annually.
More than four million visitors flock to the Gold Coast each year for their holidays, making the Gold Coast the most popular tourism region in the state.
There is a huge variety of activities for the whole family to enjoy. Surfing beaches with such alluring names as Palm Beach, Rainbow Bay, Mermaid Beach and Surfers Paradise offer soft golden sand, rolling waves and the perfect setting for a walk along the shoreline at sunset.
Towering waterfalls, crystal clear mountain streams, perhaps a picnic in a World Heritage Listed Rainforest - the choice is endless and is sure to please.
The whole family will love the theme parks, do one or do them all. Choose from the new outback spectacular, Movie World, Sea world, Wet n wild or Dreamworld.
