I went there once in 2001...and i stayed at Penisular Hotel closed to the beach. Miss Surfer Paradise so much and I hope one day i will once again visit your fabulous city with my family!
How amazing is the Gold Coast! I had an awesome holiday there and took some fantastic videos! I hope to upload them one day but thanks for sharing your photos!
Its a fantastic video on QLD-Gold Coast & Surf.Paradise....Although I have travelled thrice to Ausralia I couldnt cover Qld...This video compels me to travel....Its such an amazing place that no Aus traveller should miss...
awesome video, thanks SO much for making it, i've posted links to it on goldcoastcruiseterminal to show all the members what a wonderful place we have here :) thanks again fansofaustralia, you've done us proud! :)
Damn this looks so beautiful. I want to go to Aussie since I was 10 years old, and still haven't been there. I'm almost 20 now, I want to go very soon! Greetings from Amsterdam!
I live on the gold coast. it is really beautiful with the beaches, water and theme parks. Australia has great people with great personality's. Some people think that all ozzie's go to work on kangaroos and that the whole continent's desert, well they're wrong. This is my favourite place in the world
I had no idea the Gold Coast was an actual city in Australia, thought it was just the name for the coastline until couple days ago, looks breathtaking... i can see why many say its the greatest place on Earth. Definitely gotta see it for myself.
Surfers Paradise is definitely the centre of the nightlife. There's many parties and great restaurants around Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach. Beaches are great, just pick a calm, sunny day. Water's pretty warm in every season except winter. Theme parks are great. My personal favourite is Wet'n'Wild, which is a great water park. The people on the coast are quite nice, except for when schoolies is on. There isn't too much crime on the coast. Traffic isn't too bad, lots of places to shop at.
@Mat397 ...yeah we have GST (Goods & Sevices Tax at 10%) but it is nearly always already included in the purchase price. Only a few items are excluded. Best to think that everything will have it - and then be surprised with what doesn't .
ive just moved to the gold coast after living in cairns for 17 years let me just say there is no beach or city in north qld more beautiful then the GOLD COAST!! GC all the way.
Im saving to go here in 2013, im from the UK and im really into surfing, im looking to get a years visa, and get a little job, and experience life like no other.. down under. If i love it, which is a massive percentage I would love to live in AUS.
well...i live in melbourne, but im planning of moving there...been there once, but it was a shortie stay, so ive only seen the coast...we have some nice beaches back there as well, but ...this is amazing, the water is soo blue :D maybe once.....
@MrBbball222 Ha Ha !! Its so gorgeous I want to be there! lovely. Different way of life I have heard. My brother has lived in Aussie for a while now, never been there myself but well I can imagine people are great well you do have the weather in favour of you don't you? must lift the spirits eh! good for you glad you love it maybe one day eh? x great video thanks xx MissSweet72
We have hundreds of incredible sunrise photos of the gold coast skyline - taken from our hot air balloons. Please let me know if you would like to use any of these. Cheers!
Australia is a great country, free healthcare, good weather and its own unique personality, although we have lost what we thought is Australian due to the self-conciousness that comes with globalisation.
just because Australia is better than most of the world at sports, even with its tiny population. Australia still ranks the best in the world. :) Im happy for you, oh and Thats why Australians are the most open minded people on earth.
I'm moving there, so do you have any inside tips? How's the nightlife? How's the beaches? The water looks cold, is it? Any kind of information is more than welcome mate :)
@GeoffJennyOliver Then, a last question, is there any taxes on product. Ex: when i buy something, in quebec, i have to pay 2 taxes wich is +15% of the product price. But not on food products.
@TFPhenominal Well... Australia is a very successful place. You know that most people call it the Lucky Country. It's great living in Australia. In fact, I've lived in Sydney for all my life. Australia winters are like 11 degrees. In summer it gets to around 30 degrees. Trust me, you get used to it. Almost every house is two story and has a pool. There are some really great places here. I've visited the Parliament House like twice, and I met the Prime Minister of Australia!
@SillySausages17 I've never thought it. I like Australia and when I heared the words Down Under from Men at work band for me was pretty good although I ain't an Australian that's why. Have fun.
I have always dreamed to live in golden coast. Since I was 14 I've been figuring out how I can get there. I am sick of this European weather and atmosphere that people create.. In two years time I am eventually visiting Australia :) If you really want something, dreams always come true ;)
Gold coast is great, fun place to live. i have lived there for 7 years, its a shame there are so many Pretentious wanna be people. not every one is but there are plenty of Pretentious people.
@RubberyDreams I read a recent magazine, the main focus on hiring is engineers/builders/archiects(obviously from the recent tragedy), IT and nursing. Point of warning: Don't go swimming in the Brisbane river due to bull sharks and watch out for obvious urban problems such as spiders/snakes etc. Otherwise you're fine!
@cloudig goldy is awsome i live bout 1 hour drive away, pack sum sunscreen its going to be warm. its an amazing place it will take your breath away trust me, it sucks you in and you dont want to leave.
@RubberyDreams Hmmm. Afraid can't help you there. Spiders are okay if you keep a few gekos (part of the lizard family) in your house (they eat mosquitoes, spiders, bugs etc.). They are aloud to keep as pet, or bred. Snakes, don't really have to worry as long as you don't leave your door open all day. make sure to check your garden daily though. Another thing is ants (check up on the different species), if you see an ant mount, immediatley put fuel down it and set it on fire.
Gold Coast is as close to paradise I've come to so far. I want to go back desperately. One of the best spots to ever visit in the entire world.
Australia is the best country in the world!
I'm so lucky to live and grow up on the gold coast!
i miss the gold coast.
now i'm planning to go there every summer.
it's paradise all right
Gold coast offers a gr8 outdoor lifestyle all year round. Amazing place luv it!!

Blue mountains west of Sydney look amazing also.. so Melbourne right up to Brisbane will be the itinerary when in Australia.
We have hundreds of incredible sunrise photos of the gold coast skyline - taken from our hot air balloons. Please let me know if you would like to use any of these. Cheers!
