    What a glorious beach. Easy access, plentiful facilities, and large expanses of beautiful sand. As well as lifeguards and showers, there are plenty of shops, restaurants and places to stay just behind the beach. These are just far enough away, though, not to affect your time on the beach. Remember to swim between the flags!

    Great beach. Not too overcrowded. Good views of the Gold Coast in the distance. Convient parking. Shops near by.

    Fantastic beach and well worth a visit if ever close by. Has markets regularly which are great to browse while walking along the beachfront. Huge amount of restaurants and cafes too, with of course the actual beach a highlight with lots of clean sand and sparkling water.

    Coolangatta Beach is a popular beach destination located in the southernmost suburb of the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. It is known for its beautiful sandy shores, crystal-clear waters, and laid-back atmosphere. Coolangatta Beach offers a range of activities for visitors to enjoy. The beach itself is ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and beachside picnics. The calm waters make it suitable for families and people of all ages. Lifeguards patrol the beach, providing added safety and peace of mind for swimmers. Surfing is also popular at Coolangatta Beach, with consistent waves attracting surfers of all skill levels. There are surf schools in the area that offer lessons for beginners or those looking to improve their skills. The beach is backed by a promenade called Marine Parade, which features an array of cafes, restaurants, and shops.

Coolangatta Beach is located on the border of Queensland and New South Wales, with the town of Tweed Heads in New South Wales just a short walk away. Visitors can take advantage of this proximity to explore both states and enjoy the unique attractions and experiences they offer.

    If you know, then you know. Sun, surf and sand. Coolangatta Beach ticks all the boxes. Definitely, a favourite spot on the coast in the summertime for beach lovers, surfing gurus and grommets alike. Just remember! ...When it's warm in Brisbane, it's Cool an gatta.

๐Ÿ‘ A lovely spot for a day at the beach. The water is calm, there's plenty of space to set up and parking is okay. My only wish is that the toilets were closer, rather than across the road in the park.
