About us

Welcome to the Gold Coast Active and Social group!
We enjoy walks and hikes all over the Gold Coast (and nearby) with a social catch up at the end, as well as regular social events such as movies, theatre and board games!!

Save the second Sunday afternoon each month in your calendar and join our event to walk a short 5km section of the Gold Coast Oceanway that finishes with fun social chat in a surf club. We progress along the coast through the year from Rainbow Bay at the southern end to The Spit at the northern end. This event (formerly known as 'Walk and a Wine) has been running in one form or other for over 18 years! Come and see why it is such a great way to enjoy our coastline, meet some lovely people and get a feel for our group.

Most events request a $2 donation to cover meetup expenses. We have an optional donation of $10 that covers all events for the year so you don't have to remember gold coins!
Once costs are covered any extra funds are used to organise event treats, surprises or member celebrations :)

Numbers will be limited on hikes in line with QPWS requests and for the safety and comfort of the group and other hikers. Numbers are also limited for board game events in line with library requirements. I will aim to move waitlisted members to going for all other events, particularly our Oceanway walks since numbers often drop quickly the day before. If you are waitlisted for an event, please make sure you keep the date free and re-check before the event or remove yourself from the waitlist if you can no longer make it.

Here’s to staying Active and Social! Hope you join us at an event soon!! :)
