Brief History

Once inhabited by the Bundjalung people, the area began its modern growth during the 19th century as timber cutters and settlers moved in. Over time, its unique location—right next to the border—helped it evolve from a sleepy fishing village into a lively town popular with both locals and tourists.

When Is the Best Time to Go?

Tweed Heads enjoys a mild, subtropical climate year-round. The best time to visit is from September to November or March to May, when the weather is warm but not too humid, and there are fewer crowds. These months are perfect for outdoor activities like surfing, fishing, and exploring nearby national parks.

How far is it from the Gold Coast?

Tweed Heads is conveniently located just a few minutes’ drive from the Gold Coast. In fact, you can walk across the border in some places, making it easy to enjoy attractions in both regions during your stay.
