This brief essay looks at some Gold Coast accommodation choices (Gold Coast Australia). The popular Gold Coast tourist destination in Queensland, Australia, has sixty kilometres of coastline. Also a sunny, sub-tropical climate, great surfing beaches, and six hundred kilometres of canals and other waterways. Families with children will enjoy the six large theme parks in the district, and for golfers there are over forty golf courses. Four teams from the area compete at an Australian national level: football (soccer), basketball, ice hockey and rugby league. Away from the coast several national parks protect the Gold Coast Hinterland, location of many rain forests and mountain ranges. The area is ideal for keen ramblers and walkers.
