Why it's worth checking out
Palm Beach sits along the coast at Palm Beach, one of the Gold Coast's relaxed and lovely southern beachside suburbs. A near-perfect 4.8 rating from 19 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a beautiful, laid-back stretch of the Gold Coast — a lovely beach with sand, surf and open surrounds, a genuine favourite for a swim, a walk, a surf or simply soaking up the easygoing setting away from the busier northern beaches. It's a lovely, free outing.
Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations, so check current details and any safety advice before you go. Otherwise it's a free spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and swim between the flags where patrolled.
