THE GOLD COAST (QUEENSLAND)

The Gold Coast boasts a diverse landscape, offering some of the best locations in the world for making and studying film. Golden beaches, tropical rainforests, rugged country and a modern city skyline are just some of the backdrops that keep the biggest filmmakers in the world coming back to the Gold Coast.

With an average of 300 days of sunshine every year, this region is commonly known as “beautiful one day, perfect the next” and as a surfer’s paradise.

Famous for its 50 mile coastline of glorious, sandy white beaches, the Gold Coast is also home to about 250,000 acres of world-heritage listed rainforest, filled with exotic animals and plant life.

Some of the largest roller coasters in the southern hemisphere can be found at many of Gold Coast’s exciting theme parks: Warner Bros Movie World, Sea World, Wet’n’Wild and Dreamworld. Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary are very popular with visitors.

The Gold Coast is truly an exciting study destination for students to immerse themselves in Australia’s unique culture and relaxed lifestyle.

Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, is a short drive north, and offers easy access to a variety of natural and artistic attractions and scenery, including Queensland Gallery of Modern Art, Queensland Museum and Science-centre. Beautiful Moreton Bay, Sunshine Coast, and Byron Bay are great for weekend getaways.
