Surfers Paradise is undoubtedly Australia's most famous beach and tourist playground. The hundreds of skyscrapers, nightclubs, cafes, restaurants and resorts show the immense popularity and hectic nature of paradise. The main street, Cavill Mall is always a hive of activity, especially during Friday night markets. However, the beautiful pristine patrolled beach is the major tourist draw card. Surfers Paradise is the gateway to the Gold Coast and is close to most of the major theme parks and tourist attractions.
