Gold Coast, Australia
2 nights campaign
With around 300 days of rays a year, there's almost always sexy weather and warm water on the sun-snogged Gold Coast. Times to avoid are Schoolies Week in late November, when high-school leavers party in packs around Cavill Avenue and Surfers Paradise. The noise-sensitive should also give late October a miss, when the Gold Coast 600 V8 supercars race, held over three days on a street circuit, brings petrolhead mayhem. Fun times to visit are New Year's Eve and the Australian summer for buzzy surf comps.
