Gold Coast & Coolangatta Airport

Gold Coast is more than a coastline and is an actual city in Queensland, with a golden coast that is right on the border with New South Wales. It is very popular for surfing, which coupled with the sub-tropical climate, makes in a nice place to chill in the heat!

If you are a surfer, then you will probably head off to Surfers Paradise. If so, then check thetouristboard website to see if the surf is up, which it usually is!

A word of warning should you be planning to visit the beautiful beaches. Please remember to always swim between the red and yellow flags, where the lifeguards can keep an eye on you. If you do not stay within the flags, the lifeguards will not see you, should need help.

Lots of events throughout Queensland to keep all the family busy. In the month of April, the Gold Coast Film Festival runs at Southport. With so much going on, you best go to the Gold Coast Tourist Board (link below)for events on the Gold Coast.

About Gold Coast Coolangatta Airport - The Gold Coast Airport Terminal is open from 0440H until last night flight has cleared, but usually closes at 2300H, when the terminal is shut and passengers must leave the airport, so no sleeping over permitted. Gold Coast taxi services are located outside the arrival terminal.
