Welcome to Rainbow Bay

The most southerly town in Queensland, Rainbow Bay is the perfect getaway for a peaceful, relaxing holiday. Bordered on one side by golden beaches and the azure waters of the Pacific and by the tranquil Tweed River on the other, Rainbow Bay is ideally positioned to experience the best that the Gold Coast and the Tweed region have to offer.

Take a enjoyable day cruise along the Tweed River to tranquil waterholes and nature reserves, enjoying the abundance of native bird life. For a more lasting experience, hire a houseboat for a couple of days to explore the river system, stopping at the colourful array of shops, galleries, museums, clubs and taverns dotted all along the riverbank.

A short 20 minute drive north will take you into the bright lights of Surfers Paradise, to thrilling theme parks, exciting entertainment and divine dining. Heading south you will enter the lush rainforests of the beautiful Tweed Valley, home to three World Heritage National Parks and a host of natural wonders.

World class clubs, restaurants and both the Coolangatta and Tweed Heads shopping centres are just minutes away, as are family friendly activities like ten pin bowling, mini golf and the cinema.
