  • The history of a town that was the original hot spot for an Aussie holiday. The Coolangatta Area has grown immensely and is still the ultimate location to unwind or seek some thrills! What ever your pace, you'll find the Southern Gold Coast has something to suit every holiday maker!

    The only memory I have of this place is that I was molested in a 'phone booth near the beach in the 50s.
    And of course the changes are disappointing....TOO many people and hi-rises are an eyesore !

    Having spent my youth thoroughly enjoying living in Coolangatta this video was an excellent look back at how Coolangatta became so cool. Great video!

    I believe the boat wrecked there came from and was named after Coolangatta in the Illawarra region on NSW south coast.

    Hi, it's the City of Gold Coast (Council) Video Production Team here - we really love this video and were wondering whether you'd consent to us using extracts of it in a City-wide (non-commercial) presentation. We hope to hear from you.

    My parents honeymooned here and we holidayed when I was real young. Does anyone remember an old tourist attraction for kids called I think "funny cars" they were small electric vehicles kids rode around a track. No sign of the on the web today.

    So I'd like to know whose bright idea it was to rip up all the train lines only to force our generation to pay to put it back again ? I've heard rumours it was Russ Hinze and Bjeke. Can anyone alloborate please ? Thanks in advance

    Well in those days the internet was in black and white. It was only on for 3 hours a day. We used to get all dressed up in our Sunday best to log onto it. We'd log onto letsbuyit.com and order a gas mask and pound of tripe. Then when we finished with the computer we'd switch it off and we'd all stand up and sing the national anthem.

    Would it have killed ya to mention the original owners? Always was, always will be Aboriginal land. X

      In my opinion we are all children of mother earth and I find it horrible that anyone thinks that they can own the land but unfortunately for all of human history we have fought and killed for it.

    Hmmmm.... No mention of the people who were originally from there - the Kombumerri People, of course.
