Gold Coast

Australia · Queensland

intermediate party Crowds: high Budget: $$

The Gold Coast is point break paradise. Snapper Rocks, Burleigh Heads, Kirra — these names echo through every surfer's bucket list. The sand-bottom points produce long, makeable barrels that run for hundreds of meters when the cyclone swells hit. Add 300 days of sunshine, a vibrant city nightlife, and you've got one of the most complete surf destinations on Earth. The Superbank — a man-made sand phenomenon — creates one of the longest rideable waves anywhere.
