Rainy Days Shopping Guide Gold Coast

Rainy Days and Mondays Always Get Me Down! Except When I Am Shopping!

Retail therapy can be a great way to get rid of those rainy day blues!

The Key?
Knowing where to shop on the Gold Coast when it is raining!

Don't worry, I'll soon have you smiling and enjoying your shopping in the rain! After all retail therapy is good, rain or shine!

There are two ways to look at shopping when it is raining! Both equally valid, you will have to chose for yourself!

• Check out dry shopping experiences on the Gold Coast
• Hunt for bargains and a less busy shopping opportunity!

Harbour Town offers outlet shopping with a wide selection of local and international brands. Not much undercover here, so falls into great for the bargain hunters on rainy days!

Gold Coast Shopping Centres For Rainy Days

This map gives you a rough idea where selected indoor shopping centres are. Not all shopping centres are listed, just a few choice ones! Click on the map or the links below to discover more about the larger shopping centres. Note: HarbourTown is NOT an indoor shopping centre. Indoor Shopping Centres Australia Fair at Southport Pacific Fair at Broadbeach (has both indoor and outdoor shops) Robina Town Centre at Robina Westfield Helensvale at Helensvale (also referred to as Helensvale Town Centre)

Smaller Indoor Shopping Centres

• Marina Mirage at Main Beach. A boutique shopping centre.
• Centro Surfers Paradise
  Surfers Centro is right in the heart of Surfers at the beach end of Cavill Mall. A range of specialty shops and also access to Timezone, Shooting Gallery and Indoor bowling. So not a bad spot for some shopping and some other entertainment.
• The Oasis at Broadbeach
  The Oasis is on Broadbeach Mall and has around 140 specialty stores plus a Woolworths. It also is the only shopping mall with it's own monorail to Jupiters!
• Runaway Bay Shopping Village at Runaway Bay
  Runaway Bay has a combination of indoor and outdoor shopping, but the major shops are in the indoor section. There are around 130 specialty stores plus a Coles, Woolworths, Best & Less, Target and Big W.

Outdoor Gold Coast Shopping Centres

• Harbour Town Outlet Shopping Centre - Biggera Waters/Runaway Bay
  The shops are laid out around open air malls. If it is only raining a little you are probably able to skit between shops fairly easily. When it is pouring, take your opportunity. I hate crowds, so this is when I shop!!!
  
  Rainy days or not, Harbour Town is great for outlet shopping, but if you are after the convenience of buying from a department store or you are looking for anything other than fashion (clothes and homewares) then best to try somewhere else.
  
  If you are heading out to Harbour Town don't forget to sign up for my HarbourTown Special offer. You will be able to get some extra special bargains on the day.
• Pacific Fair - Broadbeach (has some inside and some outside)
  Pacific Fair is huge, and you get the best of both worlds with some indoor and some outdoor. Make sure you are prepared for the wet if visiting on rainy days.
