The most popular of the 21 beaches on the Gold Coast include Main Beach, Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Mermaid Beach, Miami and Nobby Beach. After a relaxing morning on the beach we recommend that you make your way to the hinterland and sample some the Gold Coast's best wines.

There is no shortage of fine wine and great food on the Gold Coast. The hinterland plays host to a number of boutique wineries that offer cellar door tastings and tours. The local premium wine is often complemented by winery restaurants and cafes. These venues showcase local produce including cheeses, chocolates, dried fruit and gourmet ice cream.

Day 4

The layout and design of the course is reminiscent of the great courses of Britain and Ireland, and primarily consists of two loops of nine holes. The front nine starts off to the southeast in an anticlockwise direction. The back nine heads off in a southwesterly direction, finishing with an interesting challenging two holes bounded by the non-tidal lake.

After golf, why not head up to Burleigh Heads National Park. A walk through the rainforest will leave you breathless. By day's end, it will certainly be worth visiting one of Gold Coast's world class day spas or just relax on one of the coast's many fine beaches.

Built on only 125 hectares, it's a perfectly manicured course. The bunkering and clever use of dips and hollows visually fools the non observant golfer. It is a course with multiple layers of complexity and its wonder is that the more one plays it, the greater your appreciation for its sophistication becomes.
