    Gold Coast & Environs - Travel advice sought

    I've never been to the Gold Coast before, but in a couple of weeks we're taking the kids up for a holiday and a Sea World excursion - they're too young for the other theme parks.

    Unfortunately I lost out and we have to fly, so I'll be without a Land Rover . However we plan to hire a car for a few days and have a look around.

    Bearing in mind that I won't have a Land Rover - what is there worth driving to and seeing in the surrounding countryside?

    Also any recommendations on good car hire - except for the main players.

    Thanks in advance, Michael

    No idea on car hire.

    But with a car, some easy but very nice bush walking. All these places have have short walks suitable for kids and O'Reilly's has a great sky walk. Beware thought the road is windy so car sick-prone kids are a worry!

    Springbrook
    Mt Tamborine
    O'Reilly's
    Tweed Valley
    Hire a tinny on the broadwater, nerang river.

    Locally there's the walk around Burleigh heads points, Currumbin sanctuary, Fleay's, Seaworld's good.

    There's lots, have a look at the GC tourism sites.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for that. Winding roads are good though it depends what kind of Hire Car I'm driving.
