In the southeast of Queensland in Australia is the beautiful city of Gold Coast, which is the largest maritime tourist center in the country. The Gold Coast stretches for more than sixty kilometers along the Coral Sea, in addition, it is the center of the eponymous region in Australia, and the agglomeration is inhabited by more than 590 thousand people. It is curious that it is in the Gold Coast that the largest skyscraper in Australia is located - the so-called "Q 1 Tower", climbing to the roof of which you can see amazing views of the city and the coast.

The Gold Coast is located on the Nerang River, and if earlier the local area was quite swampy, then today huge areas have been drained for the city, leaving, however, many wonderful canals that make up a special highlight of the city. The Gold Coast can rightly be called the gold coast” - there are beautiful sandy beaches, more than 300 sunny days a year, clear water and all the conditions for a good rest, and surfers can often be seen on the coast. However, due to the rather large waves on the city beach, it is better not to swim far, even despite the presence of a rescue service.
