Why it's worth checking out
Soul Boardwalk sits on the Esplanade in Surfers Paradise, right on the beachfront in the heart of the Gold Coast's most famous precinct. A lively dining-and-lifestyle precinct at the base of the Soul tower, it's become a popular destination — combining a range of restaurants, cafes and bars with a prime beachfront boardwalk setting and lovely ocean views.
The appeal is that combination of a great range of dining and drinks and an unbeatable absolute-beachfront location: whether you're after a relaxed meal, a coffee, drinks or just a stroll along the boardwalk with the beach right there, there's plenty to enjoy. Its prime Surfers Paradise position and beachfront buzz have made it a genuine favourite for locals and visitors alike.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 2,500 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved spot. The individual venues, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking what's on before a special trip — though for a beachfront meal, a coffee, a drink or a stroll along the boardwalk, it's often just a matter of heading down and soaking up the Surfers atmosphere at Soul Boardwalk.
