By Cody Alexander

Accommodation facilities are not to be worried about in the least, as there are many four and five star rated hotels and resorts, whose specifications are going to thrill you. There are separate arrangement packages for all, ranging from nature lovers to those who always like to be in the thick of things. Being a coastal region, it is granted that there are water parks and cool surfing adventure parks made for you in Gold Coast.

Now, the main problem that you might be facing is how to get there. Transportation facilities from almost all the country's capitals and all International airports of other cities to Gold Coast are enabled. Public transports on the streets of gold coast are also available in plenty. If you want to travel exclusively with your family, you could opt for hiring a private car. A large number of car rental companies are available in Gold Coast and in Queensland for your benefit. If you don't mind traveling by bus, then you can contact Surfside Bus lines in Gold coast, which is the local bus operator and book a conducted tour for your family.

Traveling via trains is even more convenient now in Gold coast, since the Gold coast railway line has been reconstructed in the mid 1990s. Sea world and Broadbeach holds two monorail systems in Gold coast. These train routes and monorail systems cover up almost all the significant tourist spots throughout Gold Coast. Transportation via ferry is another great option that you can opt for. It allows you a beautiful view of the sea and the coastal areas. The Gold Coast city council has called for the ferry service to be operated on solar powered catamarans.

Although they connect most of the parts, they are not accepted as a part of Translink (south east Queensland). The last and recently developed means of transport is the Gold Coast rapid transit system. In order to tackle the rising population in Australia and also the throngs of tourists arriving at Gold coast, this system has been developed to enable the visitors and the general public to use public transport and suppress the rapid increment of traffic congestions and pollution.
