The location:

When you are not on the mats training, you can relax and explore Australia's iconic Gold Coast. The Gold Coast is renowned for its unique and beautiful beaches and variety of shopping centres and outlets.

Gold Coast Shopping places vary from resort shopping villages, variety-packed centres, designer boutiques, elegant arcades and art and craft markets.

The choice is endless, with 10 major Shopping Centres on the Coast. Most of which have late night shopping and are open 7 days. Each Shopping Centre boasts a distinctive style of its own and in many cases are considered tourist attractions in themselves.
