About Tugun

Tugun is a beachside coastal suburb about 7 km northwest of Coolangatta on the Gold Coast, bordering New South Wales. Known for its long stretch of surf beach forming part of the World Surfing Reserve, it retains a laid-back vibe with beach shacks alongside an emerging café and dining scene. The name derives from an Aboriginal word meaning "sea waves," and landmarks include Tugun Surf Lifesaving Club and the scenic Flat Rock Creek area.
