My little blog with photos and guides on the beautiful Australia
What is it about Burleigh Heads that makes it so beautiful? Is it the scenic views? The The lack of over development and well managed green spaces/parks? The simple and natural combination of colors that please the eye? The relaxed atmosphere and fresh air? The climate? No idea, but I like it!
This photo shows the coastline running from the southern end of Surfers Paradise and at the start of Broadbeach through to Coolangatta. The coastal strip is packed with mainly tourist accommodation apartments which came about from the real estate speculation of the 80’s and 90’s, with the crash of the property market many of these hi-rise developments were purchased for holiday apartments now offering visitors great amenities and some of the best beachfront locations.
There is quite a lot of apartment accommodation on the coast and if your looking for a great deal the best time visit is in off peak seasons especially outside school holiday periods. Here’s a list of Budget Gold Coast Accommodation and here you can find School Holiday and term dates for all Australian states.
What’s easy to see from the photo is why it such a popular destination for a holiday – prime location for holiday apartments, clean and almost endless beach with plenty of space for everyone and it’s not over congested..yet!
This shot was taken looking across the river that circles Macintosh Island and looks towards the hi rises of Main Beach which provide spectacular views either out towards the beach and ocean and/or across the city and inland towards the mountainous backdrop of the Hinterland. Some of those towers provide permanent residential and some holiday accommodation, or a mix of both. For holiday accommodation check out the Gold Coast Accommodation page at the Gold Coast Info site. The four prominent hi rise apartment towers in the photo are also in the perfect position come Indy time being located right on the track.
