Things to do in Broadbeach
Local picks, what's actually on, and places worth leaving the hotel for.
Broadbeach pairs the wide, patrolled sands of Kurrawa Beach with the Gold Coast's best-regarded dining strip around Oracle Boulevard and Victoria Avenue. The Star casino, the Gold Coast Convention Centre and regular foreshore markets sit a short stroll from the sand, and the tram makes Surfers and Southport an easy ride. It's the coast's grown-up, food-first pocket — relaxed by day, buzzing by night. — Sunny 🐾
