Getting to the Gold Coast
Gold Coast Airport serves the southern end near Coolangatta, while Brisbane Airport is farther north. Your final beach suburb matters as much as the airport you choose.
Gold Coast / Your next move
Bring this chapter to life.
Keep exploring Gold Coast with our travel partners.
A stay near Coolangatta starts close to Gold Coast Airport, but Surfers Paradise and the northern attractions require onward travel. Brisbane Airport can be useful for flight choice, with a longer ground connection. Rail from Brisbane reaches inland Gold Coast stations such as Helensvale, Nerang and Robina; plan a local connection from the station that best suits your accommodation.
Useful to know
Compare the complete airport-to-accommodation journey, not just the flight arrival point.
If arriving by rail, choose your Gold Coast station for the suburb you need and check the onward bus or tram connection.
Check current airport transfer and public transport timetables before booking tight connections.
