The iconic Surfers Paradise Beach is a three-kilometre strip of patrolled golden sand in the heart of the Gold Coast. It was first recognised as a potential tourist hotspot in the 1950s. Decades of development has since transformed ‘Surfers’ into a modern beachside metropolis. Photographic images along the Esplanade showcase its colourful history. At sunset, it’s time to shake out your towel and follow the crowds heading to the vibrant array of nearby restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
