Currumbin
Currumbin is a photographer's paradise with spectacular views north and south. The gentle surf and small rock pools make the area's beaches popular with young families. Try your hand at a spot of fishing along the picturesque Currumbin Creek.
A multiple winner of Queensland's cleanest beach award, Palm Beach lures agile locals looking to stretch their muscles along golden sands and cool off in sparkling warm waters. After a busy morning workout at the beach, sit back and quench your thirst at the Surf Life Saving Club.
Currumbin has a unique character with respect to other beachside suburbs – it's where the bush, the vegetated littoral rainforest areas to the west, meet the beach, an area of vegetated coastal dune areas and parkland. Elephant Rock and Currumbin Rock enclose a popular surfing beach.
To ensure this unique character would be further enhanced through public works and upgrades in the area, extensive consultation was undertaken with property owners and interested community groups to develop a master plan which included works in the parkland along Pacific Parade and streetscape improvements along the western side of Pacific Parade.
