This is my local and probably my favourite beach on the Gold Coast. Far from the maddening crowds of tourists in Surfers. Busy most mornings and weekends but a lovely foreshore, walks either on the sand or the esplanade, amenities and exercise equipment and bbq huts located all the way along and a surf club at each end - what...

I have travelled to a lot of places in the world but have yet to find a more complete spot to spend a hpliday than at Burleigh Heads on the Gold.Coast. There is nothing that a family or a couple could want to enhance their holiday. Burleigh is in the heart of the Gold coast just 12ks to southport and... More

Burleigh Heads Beach is clean and beautiful. When I was growing up my family had holidays are Burleigh Heads at least once a year, so I have very fond memories of hours spent on this beach as a child. Now when I am at the Gold Coast, my husband and I enjoy a trip here at least once through the... More

This is one of the best Family Beaches on the Gold Coast. We had a lovely swim in calm waters under the watchful eye of the local life guards(felt very safe). The beach area was very clean as was the surrounding park lands an amenities. Great park area with plenty of shade and play equipment if you you want to... More

We went here today and there really is something for everyone. There were plenty of families playing with there kids in the big park, while we walked along the walking tracks taking in the views of the coast which were fantastic, plenty of food options. This is a fantastic change from Broadbeach but with most GC beaches they are all... More

The waves the day we visited were not very big so it would be perfect for children and the views are awsome. More

What a beautiful beach. Having been rescued there by the lifesavers as a child, I had not returned to Burleigh for close to 35 years, always bypassed it to go to other beaches. So glad we went this time, have some great new memories now, lovely walks, great watching the surfers from the point, lovely restaurants close by, and clear... More

The nice, elegant sand that sieves through your feet. You can also climb Burleigh Heads Mountain and discover breathtaking views once the summit is reached. There is lots to discover and enjoy along the delightful walking track. More
