Gold Coast Flight Guide

Gold Coast refers to a city which actually consists of many small towns along the coast of Queensland. It has around half a million residents and thousands of tourists visit every year. It is by far Australia’s most tourist oriented resort and particularly famous among water sport fans, animal lovers and young people.

The main centre of the Gold Coast is Surfers Paradise which is very popular among young people and students. It is the ideal place for a trip with friends because of its vibrant nightlife which features countless pubs, bars and clubs. The Gold Coast is also very famous for its theme parks such as Sea World, Warner Bros. Movie World and Australian Outback Spectacular. Besides these attractions, the Gold Coast is also a natural beauty with its long sandy beaches and stunning wildlife. Not far from the Gold Coast is Byron Bay ,which is a meeting point for alternative and hippie communities.

The temperatures rarely fall below 10°C in winter and rise up to 30°C in summer. The best time to visit for surfers and water sport enthusiasts is between November and February. Tourists who are mainly interested in the theme parks or nightlife can come all year round.
Australians can fly to the Gold Coast from virtually any domestic airport. Book with JetStar instead of Qantas to save on fares.
