Create an itinerary including Kirra Beach
Surf the renowned waves at Kirra Beach or just relax in the wide stretch of sand. Many visitors to the region consider this one of the best beaches on the Gold Coast. If you surf, you'll likely enjoy the long break offshore. If not, claim one of the free barbecues and enjoy a scenic seaside picnic. You can also eat lunch in the local surf club. The ocean waves are gentle enough for swimming, and a playground occupies kids. If you're here on a Sunday, wander around the weekly market. Make Kirra Beach a centerpiece of your Gold Coast vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Gold Coast trip planner.

  • Such a lovely beach to visit. Not as busy or overbuilt as it’s counterparts up the coast. Nice restaurants and cafes and super close to the airport.

  • Great beach. Warmer water once you're in. Some good surfing here. Plenty of shops bars cafes and restraunts. Lizards between Kirra and Rainbow beach friendly 😁

  • Do you know there are 12000 beaches in Australia and if you visit one every day it would take you 32 years to visit all of them? Go get ready, wear your suit and visit one today. Kirra beach is one of the widest and longest beach, beautiful and blue clear water with scenic views around. Highly recommended πŸ‘ There are no cafes nearby ( I am talking about Halal food) please take your own food supplies with you if you are going for whole day.
  • Beautiful wide, white sandy beach in upmarket precinct. Surf life savers on guard. Great cafes and restaurants along the beach. Ample parking spaces.
  • What an incredible Long white sandy beach!!!….more than one hour To walk from KIrra to Currumbin!!!
  • Perfect for surf lessons in small swells and intermediate lessons on moderate swell. Flagged Beach and beautiful clean water, watch out for submerged rocks on the inside. Good family beach but getting busier and parking is tight.
  • Lovely lookout. Bbq area is clean tidy with an amazing view. Great for whale watching.
