Following the Gold Coast Oceanway north, this viewpoint near Currumbin Alley offers a great look over one of the southern Gold Coast’s most famous surf spots. From the rocks and lookout area you can watch waves roll into the narrow entrance of Currumbin Creek, where the calm estuary meets the open ocean. The area is known locally as “the Alley” because the sandbanks and headland create a long, smooth wave that surfers ride through a natural channel toward the beach.
