Set up by five of the Gold Coast’s most iconic pro surfers, including three-time world champ, Mick Fanning, and his best mate, world champ Joel Parkinson, Balter Brewing is about the “enjoyment of a task without any particular skill for it”. This is a brewery where taste is the number one priority. Balter themselves note, “A neat can and cool place to hang out are great, but if our brews don’t tickle your tongue and put a grin on your head, then we haven’t done our job.”
Located in the cruisy beach town of Currumbin, there are few places on the Gold Coast you’ll want to spend a Sunday afternoon more than Balter. Be sure to sneak in one of their award-winning pale-ales while grooving along with the taphouse DJ as you play a round of ‘World Tinnie Hurling’ – a game they invented just for the occasion of sunny Gold Coast afternoons.

Home to stunning national parks and famous surf break. This beach is also only 40min (borders open) from Return to Eden Mountain Sanctuary. For establishments with character, you can’t go past Burleigh Heads, and in particular, James Street. The selection ranges from wonderful poké bowls and sushi to fish and chips, vegetarian and our favourite coffee spot, Social Brew. From James Street, it is a two-minute walk to Burleigh Beach to watch world-renowned surfers riding world-class waves.

The small suburb of Palm Beach, at the southern end of the Gold Coast, has a lot to offer – an amazing beach, a cool café strip and a boutique shopping precinct – yet most people drive straight past on their way to the better-known Currumbin or Coolangatta regions. The beach alone is worth the visit; with a slight bend to face north-east, it’s protected from summer southerly winds. There are wonderful little sand banks here, and when you finish your surf or swim you can walk off the beach straight into a beautiful café. For a meal with a view, visit the Tallebudgera or Palm Beach surf clubs.

Mt Warning
When you're driving through Murwillumbah to Tomewin you'll see a mountain taller than the rest that's rather crooked at the tip. If you look closely you'll see that Mr. Warning actually resembles a face, with the tip being a crooked nose and the flatter areas face contours from the eyes, mouth and chin.

Helensvale to Beach Tram
If you're using public transport on the Gold Coast and heading to the beach, the best way is to catch the train from Varsity Lakes Train Station to Helensvale Train Station and get on the Tram to the beach.

Family bike rides along the beach are beautiful
The Gold Coast is one of the best spots in Australia for a family bike ride thanks to the nearly 800 kilometres (500 miles) of cycling paths that have been integrated into the city’s town planning. This means you can grab a bike way map and a bicycle from Beach Bikes, and visit the canals, suburbs and hinterland. For smaller children, check out Green Cabs in Surfers Paradise. The famously fun pedicabs let kids zip along the beachfront promenade without the need to pedal.
