Shot was taken early one morning strolling along the beach at Broadbeach with the sun just rising out of shot over the ocean on the right. Tyre tracks are from the surf patrol 4wd on it’s way to set up for the day.

On the left is the accommodation hi-rises at the northern end of Broadbeach leading down towards the Q1 and the hi-rises of Surfers Paradise in the distance. And yes, there is no one on the beach! Broadbeach is great place to live, visit or holiday. Far more relaxed than Surfers Paradise and more down to earth than Main Beach and with the recent redevelopments offering just as much if not more with the casino and Pacific Fair nearby. As far as Gold Coast accommodation goes, Broadbeach is sometimes a little more affordable although just as high in standards excluding probably the Marriot, Sheraton or Palazzo.
