Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
Appel Park is a green space in the middle of busy Surfers Paradise, with views across the river. It offers a quieter place to pause, take a walk or enjoy the outlook while staying close to the centre of the Gold Coast.
The park includes a boat ramp, lookout, toilets and a disability toilet. It is suited to a range of simple outdoor visits, from a short walk and riverside break to launching a boat. The open setting and central location make it a practical option for solo visitors, families and groups looking for time outdoors rather than a formal attraction.
Appel Park is at 10 Ferny Avenue, Surfers Paradise. There are no parking facilities at the park, so visitors should plan their arrival accordingly. Dogs must be kept on a leash unless an area is specifically signed otherwise, and dogs are not permitted in children's playground areas. Appel Park is rated 4.5 out of 5 on Google from 163 reviews.
