Gold
Coast in March
Beach
Vacation Time
The
Gold Coast in March? There simply isn’t anywhere better for a
beach vacation!
It might be autumn but it’s sizzling - in
fact March is a
personal favourite of mine!
Lots
of local surf and surf
lifesaving events
are held this month. You'll also find the pro-surfers in town to catch
the great
surf at this time of year!
If
surfing isn’t your thing you can walk, play, laze on one of
the amazing beaches.

Tips for
Travelers to Gold Coast in March
|
For
Australian Visitors
A
great time to visit, especially if you don’t have school aged
children.
Accommodation with air-conditioning is highly recommended at this time
of year.
|
|
For
Visitors from Overseas
March
is still hot by most people’s standards
but seems much more bearable than the summer months.
When
Easter falls in March sometimes the school holidays don't coincide with
Easter. In the main areas most businesses catering for
visitors
remain open throughout
Easter, but if you are off the beaten track a little be conscious that
holidays
to Aussies are sacred and most things will be shut!
Good
quality, air-conditioned accommodation in a good location is still
the
best pick for a beach vacation.
