Want info on the Gold Coast?

If you are looking for information on Queensland's Gold Coast, check out the website of the Gold Coast Tourist Information Centre.

AAWS08 is being held at Conrad Jupiters which is in Broadbeach, just south of the famous Surfers Paradise, a 20 minute drive north of the Gold Coast airport at Coolangatta, or an hour's drive south of Brisbane.

September is early spring, which means the weather on the Gold Coast should be fine and mild, with a temperature range of 15-25°C / 59-77°F, just right to get over the winter blues for those of us from colder parts of Australia.
