Introducing Surfers Paradise & Broadbeach
Many locals reckon that if Surfers Paradise were a person, it would be Paris Hilton: flashy, trashy, always up for a party and big on style and self-promotion. It’s the undisputed core of the Gold Coast’s revelry and excites with a heady mix of restaurants, bars, nightclubs, surf, sun and other less salubrious shenanigans.

For backpackers, Surfers is the place to party in Queensland, and hostel staff do their best to ensure the place goes off every night of the week. At Broadbeach, a few kilometres down the road, things shift down a gear and you’ll find more space, less noise and some great dining options.
