Things to explore in gold coast while renting a van

 

I think now more than ever given the effects of COVID-19, the thought of building a little van and driving away into the unknown is so enticing. We cannot even travel interstate without the possibility of being forced to quarantine in a hotel and foot the costs, let alone travel overseas. However, this is where we as Australians are so fortunate. Although we are a country roughly the same size of the USA, we only have 8 States in total, meaning that there is plenty of exploring to be done in your own state! Reducing the risk of quarantine and being stuck is a massive factor, and this is why van hire is becoming more of a common, and awesome trend! Even better, having your own van includes transport, has the ability to include accommodation and you do not have to rely on anyone else, just you! For all of our people wanting to explore the Gold Coast, let’s see what there is to explore.

When you think of the Gold Coast, the first thing that pops into mind is the beautiful beaches, bustling nightlife and the array of theme parks. Now, with a van, there is no limit to what you can see, where you go or when you want to go. All in a day’s driving, you can easily visit the likes of Surfers Paradise Beach, stop in for a nice coffee along Broadbeach, pop down to Burleigh Heads beach and explore the Headland, then track down to Coolangatta and Greenmount for a swim. All of these spots are some of the most picturesque and sought after beaches in all of Australia, and with van hire, you can visit them in a matter of hours. If you want even more of an island vibe, you can always get the barge over to North Stradbroke Island. The majority of roads are bitumen, meaning that you can get around just fine in your van.

If you do not have a tour group or a car, getting to all of the theme parks can prove a little difficult. They are essentially up the northern end of the coast, and are a matter of minutes from each other. With a van, you can check out every theme park the Gold Coast has to offer, whether it be in one day or over  a few.

Last but not least, the Gold Coast has some stunning national parks and rainforests. Lamington National Park and Springbrook National Park are home to some great walking tracks, and native animals and plants that are unique to Australia. Even better, these national parks are easily accessible in your van, and there are some great, free places to stay close by.
