By that do you mean the Gold Coast or specifically Surfer's Paradise? Because if you mean Surfer's Paradise then the only place is -> The beach at Surfer's Paradise

However, if you mean the Gold Coast then:
- Shearwater Esplanade is a good spot, (Broadwater)
- Marine Parade, (Broadwater)
- Any beach really

Just check here for places that do not permit kiting:

I'm sure there are plenty of other spots but I generally stick to shearwater and occasionally palm beach just cuz I live close to it.

I usually run no fins in my surfboard when I kite here just in case I hit a few boardriders.
The lineup generally has a bad vibe though...
Give it a go and report back here on how it was.

Surfingboye is on the money..

Snappers a sick spot.. Friendly locals and loads of room to cut in and out riding the waves.
