Gold Coast in February

Australian Gold Coast in February

The beach is central to life in the Gold Coast during February. See Aussie icons battling it out in surf carnivals and surfing competitions. Or simple enjoy a bit of beach. This Surfers Paradise beach view was taken from Q1.

Sun, Sport and Surf Carnivals

Gold Coast in February is a great time to be by the beach, surf or a pool since it is so hot and humid!

February is busy but not as hectic as January.

It is also a very sporting month in the Gold Coast. Apart from surf lifesaving and surf carnivals - there are also major golf and volleyball competitions.

Sport and Aussies go together - so this is a great time to see some Aussie Icons.

Sport isn't the only thing you can do in the Gold Coast during February. It's a brilliant time to check out the rainforest in the hinterland.

The lush rainforest comes alive with interesting plants and animals and is a complete contrast to the hustle and bustle of the built up coast.

Good quality, air-conditioned accommodation in a good location is still the best pick.
