10 Must-Visit Attractions on Australia's Gold Coast
"The Gold Coast’s not all about bling, surf and theme parks – the expansive hinterland provides lush rainforest to go with all that golden sand. And the Unesco World Heritage-listed Springbrook National Park is one of its highlights, home to a dense forest and rich diversity of bird life, perched on an ancient volcano. Don’t miss the highly Instagrammable Natural Bridge cave and waterfall."

Many of the trails are kid-friendly and there are multiple picnic areas. Before you lace up your hiking shoes, drive the Springbrook Circuit to get acquainted with the park."

"One of the essentials of the Gold Coast, especially for first-timers, is the Skypoint Observation Deck. Situated on top of the Q1, Skypoint will give you access to the highest point above the Gold Coast while providing spectacular, uninhibited 360-degree views that stretch from the surf to the hinterland and beyond. While access to the deck itself may seem pricey for simple access, the views on offer are unparalleled and the price of admission is well worth it."

Gold Coast Beaches Guide - Surfers Paradise & more | Experience Oz
"Easily the most famous beach on the Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise is also easily the most popular and crowded throughout the year due to its close proximity to the main attractions and theme parks, accommodation, nightlife and entertainment hub of the Gold Coast. The name "Surfers Paradise" can be deceiving however; while Surfers' beach is definitely one of the most beautiful on the Gold Coast and if not, the world, the conditions for actual surfing are no better (and often far worse) than other Gold Coast-area alternatives such as Kirra, Duranbah and Burleigh Heads. Being situated a mere 100m walk from a huge range of restaurants, shopping outlets and fast food chains means that what Surfers Paradise beach lacks in big waves it more than makes up for in convenience, and its location near so many resorts and holiday apartment buildings makes it a hugely popular location to while away weekends either lazing on the beach or enjoying the great swimming conditions."
