Area and transport

Getting around

Getting around Helensvale

A hire car helps if you want to mix beaches, hinterland stops, and theme parks, but Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise work without one for shorter stays.

Broadbeach

A strong all-round choice for families who want walkable dining, easy beach access, and a calmer feel than Surfers Paradise.

Main Beach

Best for families who want larger resorts and easier access to Sea World without staying in the busiest nightlife strip.

Burleigh Heads

Good for a more local beach rhythm, parks, and a slower holiday pace with older kids or confident walkers.
