Gold Coast - Surfers Paradise We arrived in Gold Coast really late after leaving Noosa. The bus kept on being delayed and we ended up getting to Surfers Paradise around 2 hours late, about 10pm. We hadn't booked any accommodation because we thought it would be okay...even though it was New Years...ooops! We found out it wasn't okay. Nowhere had any rooms to stay which were cheaper than $169.00 per night so we were ready to sleep rough for one night. :( We sat ...
