With more than its fair share of sights and attractions – think beaches, theme parks and a natural hinterland – the Gold Coast is just begging to be explored on 4 wheels. You could have the forest as your backyard one day, then wake up to the ocean calling your name the next.
Read on to find out how to make this bucket-list holiday a reality by hiring a campervan on the Gold Coast.

Data from Motorhome Republic shows the cost of campervan hire in winter is $340 a day, compared to average summer rates of $183 a night. These prices are based on a 2-berth rental.
The cost of your campervan depends on:
In terms of weather, the best time to visit the Gold Coast is between April and May. The autumn season offers minimal chance of rain and consistent sunny temperatures. Just be sure to book after Easter to avoid school holiday crowds.
The good news continues as the cheapest time of year falls in the autumn as well. This is because dates don't fall in line with schoolies, New Year, Christmas or school holiday periods.
As long as you have a full valid driver's licence written in English, then you can drive a campervan on the Gold Coast.
No, parking just anywhere on the Gold Coast is illegal and can land you a hefty fine. Although there aren't many free camping areas in the city, there are a few low-cost spots that you can park up in.
To really see everything on offer in and around the Gold Coast, we recommend 3-4 days. This allows you to hit up the local hot spots, catch some rays at the renowned beaches and take in the beauty of the hinterlands.
Mandatory third party insurance is automatically included in your rental rate which covers injuries to other people. To cover vehicle damage, you can choose to pay extra for campervan insurance.
Find campervan depots all across the Gold Coast in areas such as Coolangatta, Mermaid Waters, Miami, Oxenford and Tugun.
Although there aren't any directly at the airport, JUCY is located right in Coolangatta and Driveabout Campers offers free airport transfers.
