BROADBEACH is home to the widest imaginable variety of award winning restaurants, the enormous Broadbeach Convention Centre, Jupiter’s Casino and Pacific Fair shopping centre along with Kurrawa Surf Lifesaving Club which overlooks the beach and is often the venue for National Championships. Visit the Lantern Markets from September to May or Beachfront Markets at Kurrawa Park on the first and third Sundays of the month. Picnic or BBQ in Kurrawa Park or Cascade Gardens or perhaps Albert Park at Broadbeach Waters which has bicycle and walking paths around the lake. The Gold Coast Turf Club is close by at Bundall near the site of the first racecourse and cricket club which opened in 1877.
