This photo shows the coastline running from the southern end of Surfers Paradise and at the start of Broadbeach through to Coolangatta. The coastal strip is packed with mainly tourist accommodation apartments which came about from the real estate speculation of the 80’s and 90’s, with the crash of the property market many of these hi-rise developments were purchased for holiday apartments now offering visitors great amenities and some of the best beachfront locations.

There is quite a lot of apartment accommodation on the coast and if your looking for a great deal the best time visit is in off peak seasons especially outside school holiday periods. Here’s a list of Budget Gold Coast Accommodation and here you can find School Holiday and term dates for all Australian states.

What’s easy to see from the photo is why it such a popular destination for a holiday – prime location for holiday apartments, clean and almost endless beach with plenty of space for everyone and it’s not over congested..yet!
