If you enjoy campervan hire Gold Coast is the place to be. Situated in the southeast corner of Queensland, Australia, between Brisbane and New South Wales in the south lies Australia's 6th largest city, Gold Coast City.
There are lots of beaches to see along a 40 km stretch. Palm Beach, Surfers Paradise, Mermaid Beach and Miami are a few to mention.
Bring your DriveAbout Camper and let the city inspire you to get in on the action and be adventurous. Forget about car hire, get yourself into a campervan. Hiring a car means you're tied down to wherever you're staying, but if you spend your holiday in your budget campervan, the Gold Coast will offer you so much more.
Checking the place out in your campervan, the Gold Coast is an ideal home base for exploring a wide range of activities from windsurfing to bushwalking.
Campervans are small enough to be cheap to run, but large enough to sleep up to seven people in comfort, depending which campervan you hire. Don't base yourself at a cheap hotel and hire a cheap car to run about in. It's no good -- you need to get back to the hotel every night that way.
You're better off getting into a nicely appointed campervan, check out whatever part of the coast takes your fancy, and stay where you end up . . .
If you're big on air and water, hold your breath and sky dive, abseil, parasail, bungy jump and enjoy masses of water sports all along the coast.
The Gold Coast is big on theme parks and caravan parks, too. Check out Dream World, White Water World, Movie World, Wet ’n’ Wild Sea World in the area. You can reach all of these when you use campervan hire Gold Coast from DriveAbout Campers.
The Gold Coast is a city where beachscapes fill with bands and great food and wine to the brim with concerts and bands and nightlife entertainment. Fortunate travellers in a decent cheap van can discover the secrets of nature here at Springbrook National Park.
The largest glow worm colonies dot the darkness, plus our local Aussie neighbours like the furry koala and kangaroos as well. In your campervan you'll be able to stay the night, and drop off to sleep in their glow.
If you’d rather lay back, the Hinterland region is half an hour from the beaches and here you can enjoy an afternoon or a weekend calm and sipping wine. But you can stay in the city if you like. Immerse in spas and relax in a lagoon style pool.
