Freeman's Organic Farm, Coolangatta

In a region renowned for fresh produce, a visit to Freeman's Organic Farm at Tomewin Mountain is a must. Take a tour of this iconic local farm and its crops before sitting down to enjoy the same produce on your plate in the café. 

Vikings, Coolangatta

Currumbin Night Markets, Currumbin Sanctuary

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is not only a popular attraction by day, but transforms into a foodies heaven every Friday night at The Sanctuary Markets. Featuring a range of international cuisines and live tunes, join the fun from 4 - 9pm on the Village Green.

Guilty Cafe, Currumbin Waters

If you're a sweet tooth, discover a sugary heaven at Currumbin's Guilty Café. Changing the way you think about a milkshake, these floss-topped, candy-coated treats are the ultimate indulgence. 

Snapper Rocks, Coolangatta
