Australia offers a wealth of surfing opportunities for people of all ages and skill levels. Experienced surfers may wish to head to Bells Beach in Victoria – one of Australia’s most famous surfing beaches, where the world-famous Rip Curl Pro has been held since 1962. You’ll find some of the best beachside accommodation in Australia at luxury hotels like Wyndham Resort Torquay and budget-friendly options like Bells Beach Backpackers. The long stretch of coast from Agnes Water, Queensland, to Sydney, New South Wales, is home to beach towns large and small. Beginners might like to try the gentle surf around Agnes Water and 1770. Here, you can find Australian hotels with a beachy vibe, like Agnes Water Beach Club or 1770 Lagoons Central Apartment Resort. As you travel further south, you’ll find more robust surf around Queensland’s Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast and the Northern Beaches of New South Wales.
