The Gold Coast has a vibrant dining scene and nightlife, friendly and relaxing neighbourhoods, and is the ‘theme park capital of Australia’. The Gold Coast is Australia’s sixth-largest city with strong economic growth, world-class educational institutions, and career opportunities.

Campus facilities include spacious student lounges, quiet study spaces and outdoor courtyard.

The Gold Coast has more than 300 days of sunshine per year with hot summers and mild winters, so you will have plenty of opportunities to swim, surf, and play outdoors. It’s the perfect playground for water sports, seaside strolls, and hiking through nature.
You can enjoy alfresco (outdoor) dining at a great range of coastal restaurants, cafes, and street stalls as well as plenty of dining options in the city serving international cuisine.
The cost of living in the Gold Coast is lower compared to Australian capital cities and it’s easy to get around with a great network of buses, trains, and trams that is convenient and reliable.
The Gold Coast is a diverse place to live with nearly 1 in 3 residents born overseas* and hosts an extensive list of cultural events and festivals every year.

City of Gold Coast
The Gold Coast’s white sandy beaches stretch along 57km of Australia’s coastline and are great spots for sunbaking, water sports, and recreational activities. The Gold Coast has 9 times more waterways than Venice, Italy so you can navigate the city by boat, jet ski, or paddle board.
Just a short drive from the city centre is the Gold Coast’s green hinterland - ‘the green behind the gold’ where you will find rainforests, mountains, waterfalls and abundant wildlife. Admire the glow worm cave in Tambourine Mountain or hike through the beauty of Lamington National Park as well as visit quaint villages and sample local produce.
Get up close to Australian wildlife at the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary or experience a day of thrills and laughs at any of the large theme parks.
