Question 2

Is Gold Coast walkable?

Accepted Answer

Only in pockets. Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach are walkable, but sights are spread out, so distances between beaches, theme parks, and neighbourhoods are long.

Use the G:link tram between Helensvale, Southport, Surfers Paradise, and Broadbeach South for Pacific Fair; buses 705 to Sea World and 700 or 777 along the coast and to the airport fill the gaps. For a relaxed day with less walking or to reach hinterland sights, consider a private tour in Gold Coast.
