Shop at the stores that line this pedestrian-only mall to find well-known surf brands, luxury goods or bargain fashion accessories.

See the meter maids strut past in their golden bikinis as they go about their mission of topping up expired parking meters. This quirky local tradition began in the 1960s as a publicity stunt and quickly became a classic fixture of Surfers Paradise life.

Dine at one of the many restaurants on the avenue and choose from an astonishing array of cuisines from all over the globe. Finish your meal with dessert at one of the gelatarias and an evening stroll among the palm trees. Look for street performers and free music acts at the mall stage.

Book in for a day of indulgence at the resort spas. A range of accommodation styles can be found around the mall to suit all budgets.
