Bordered
to the north by the Currumbin Creek,
west by Currumbin Waters and south by
Tugun, Currumbin holds plenty of appeal
for buyers looking for the best of both
worlds; sea and surf or sweeping views
of the valley. Currumbin, Currumbin
Waters and the Currumbin Valley are
renowned for their natural beauty,
attracting visitors with their scenic
beaches and National Parks.
Currumbin is home to Wallace Nicoll
Park, the famous Currumbin Wildlife
Sanctuary and Currumbin Creek. Elephant
Rock is another attraction, offering a
great lookout with views extending back
towards Surfers Paradise. Where families
once occupied the same Currumbin home
for generations, they are now moving on.
In recent times the face of Currumbin
has changed, with the older style beach
homes brought down and replaced with
newer Mediterranean style homes. Flight
paths restrict the height of apartment
blocks, especially on the hilled area
overlooking Currumbin Point.
Services in the Currumbin area include a
shopping centre, hospital and local
transport, as well as the Coolangatta
Airport nearby. Education is provided
through local state primary and
secondary schools, as well as a catholic
primary school in Currumbin. There are
more schools in surrounding suburbs,
including private colleges in Andrews,
Burleigh Waters and Southport. The
nearest TAFE campus is in Ashmore and
there is a Southern Cross University
campus in Tweed Heads.
Currumbin Valley is 20 kilometres south
west from Surfers Paradise, in the
steeply rising hills behind Currumbin.
Some of the ridge properties in this
area offer magnificent, sweeping views,
with the famous Currumbin Rock Pool and
the Mount Cougal National Park a
favourite with visitors. This area is
abounding in wide-open spaces, large
established trees and individualistic
homes on quality acreage property
