1. Burleigh Heads Beach
Gold Coast beaches come in squeaky clean and surf-loving shapes. Of course, the sand is golden and the sun shines brighter than it does anywhere else. This top-rated beach is the best of them all.

Nature at it’s best! Springbrook is a beautiful brook that traces it’s way through a forest and falls from a cliff to become a beautiful waterfall. The national park surrounding it is a beautiful forest. You could follow a steep driveway if you want to be on the upper side of the location. You’ll get amazing views from there.
3. Snapper Rocks
Snapper Rocks is another one of the most memorable ocean-view points. It is also where some of the most adept surfers go to test their gliding abilities.
4. Surfer’s Paradise Beach
This beach is not only a Surfer’s Paradise but is also a jogger, dog-walker and romantic’s beach. The golden sand sits there inviting all these vibes. It is a good place to go with families. There are countless restaurants, food joints and pubs all around the shore.
5. Purling Brook Falls
You know a rewarding hike when you see one, right? Check this one out, at the end of the 6-hour walk, you’ll end up at this beautiful waterfall. Every time I look at this picture, the fascination only grows.
6. Currumbin Rock Pools
There are at least a hundred blue-green pools in these rock formations. Swimming is definitely a yes. Paddling and floating on a rubber duck, is probably welcome too. Infants will love it, the adults can lay off in a corner and admire the forest. It is pretty much accessible too. If you’re in the mood for it, maybe even take a long ride and get to the unexplored portions of the forest.
7. Whale Watching at Kirra Hill
Whale watching could be done from literally anywhere in Gold Coast, Kirra Hill gives you just the right amount of elevated views and coastal intensity to get a nice view of whales. Don’t forget to take a nice set of binoculars with you.
