The Gold Coast Airport is your gateway to a seaside paradise of warm weather, sunshine-filled days, and cool ocean water. Whether you’re staying in Surfers Paradise, the most famous city in this region, or further afield, you’ll likely need a rental car to help you get from place to place.
It’s likely that you’re in need of a much-needed visit to the Gold Coast for a never-ending Australian summer, particularly now that the borders are once again open. And, with flights from Auckland only lasting 3.5 hours direct, it’s an easy choice for a much-needed break in the sun.
These past two years have been too long. Here at Hertz, we are excited to get our New Zealand friends across the border and explore our Australian cities just like before. Whether it is your first visit or your third, we are so happy that travel has resumed, reunions can happen, and holidays will begin again for everyone here at the Gold Coast Airport.
Once you’ve landed at the Gold Coast, simply collect your luggage before heading over to our rental desk to collect your rental car.
Enjoy the Beach with Hertz
The Gold Coast is an apt name for this region of Australia. With golden beaches lining the coast here, it’s likely that you’re visiting for an extended period in the sunshine.
There are plenty of beaches to relax on now that you’re here. Leave the winter chill of New Zealand behind, because, on the Gold Coast, we have warm temperatures all year round. With plenty of beautiful spots to welcome you in, you could experience a new beach every day of your holiday if you so choose.
From Miami Beach to Palm Beach, Flagstaff Beach to Gold Coast Beach, there are a plethora of sandy bays to lay your blanket on and enjoy the sun. Perhaps bring a book and relax to the sounds of the ocean as the day passes you by.
Of course, there are other terrains to choose from if a day by the beach just isn’t what you want for that particular day. With tropical terrain, expansive outback, and lush hinterland, Queensland is home to many different types of landscapes, which completely justifies its reputation as one of the best holiday destinations in Australia.
Explore the Surf and the City in Your Rental Car
One of the most iconic landscapes on the Gold Coast is the Surfers Paradise skyline. With scenes rivalling Miami, Florida, it’s certainly not a place that you will forget in a hurry.
Surfers Paradise is one of the most fun-loving cities in the whole of Australia. With ample restaurants, cafes, bars, and more, it’ll be the best destination for that post-pandemic break you’ve been longing for. Enjoy an adrenaline rush at the theme parks just outside of the city: Dreamworld, Movie World, and Sea World to just name a few, before heading to the beach for a sunset swim. Sounds like a dream, right?
It’s been a long time since movement has been free between New Zealand and Australia. What a way to welcome back international holidays like a much-needed sun-filled trip to the Gold Coast. Experience the subtropical climate, beautiful landscapes and terrains, and east-coast oceans now that you finally can. It’ll definitely be a holiday to remember, however you choose to enjoy it!
We cannot wait to see you here soon at Hertz Gold Coast Airport. Head to our rental desk when you arrive, and our staff can welcome you to your holiday and help you get on the road in your rental car as fast as possible.
