Champagne on the way from the airport! You can't get closer to the beach than a Surf Life Saving Club! Brilliant pub food, fun relaxed atmosphere. STUNNING views. Great prices, and it's our family tradition to have a glass of champagne on the way home from the airport!

Parks & Nature
My favourite place on the Gold Coast. Go during the day to see the incredible waterfall. Go at night, in the pitch black dark, to hear the amazing sound of the waterfall, and see glow worms like you've never seen them in your life. This is absolutely my favourite thing to do on the Gold Coast - visit the glow worms at night. AND IT'S FREE!

Shopping
There are three main shopping malls on the Gold Coast: Pacific Fair, Robina, Australia Fair and Harbour Town...if you only have time to just go to ONE....make it Pacific Fair. It's HUGE HUGE HUGE. Hop on the tram at Surfers - only a few stops till the end of the line at Broadbeach/Pacific Fair. Great day out. Great movie theatre. If you've never been to Gold Class Movies...NOW IS THE TIME!!!

Highly unusual to have a market on the beachfront. It's fun, safe, and family friendly. Have a stroll through and see all the local artwork. Only on certain days. More info: https://www.destinationgoldcoast.com/places-to-see/surfers-paradise/attractions/surfers-paradise-beachfront-markets

BEAUTIFUL RIVER CRUISES. This is so lovely that I did the cruise on Christmas Day last year. So clean, professional, fun crew. The food was INCREDIBLE. Living with this incredible view all day long - you'd think I'd be sick of it - but the view from the river cruises is really truly special. You really will love it!

Enjoy the incredible views from the tallest residential building - Q1. This is the place to be for any of the big nights - New Year's - Christmas etc. It has a restaurant and an observation deck. If you wanted Christmas or New Year's up there you'd have to book well in advance - as it's the place to be.
