Australia's famous Surfers Paradise Beach lies at the heart of Queensland's Gold Coast. Swim and surf along the expansive beaches with this two kilometre stretch of golden sand and rolling surf patrolled by three lifeguard towers, all keeping watch over designated swimming and surfing areas.
Riding a wave here sits highly on the bucket list of holiday makers and made simple with hire boards and surf lessons available and beach breaks extending the full length of the beach. The best conditions for more experienced surfers are on the outer bar with moderate swell and offshore winds.
The beach itself is backed by a fenced fore-dune with plenty of signed access tracks from the esplanade to the sand and lined in seating areas and barbecues with ocean views for those wanting to just take it all in. The adjacent foreshore precinct is a hive of energy and home to towering beachside accommodation, alfresco dining and night markets.
