Marisa's Guide to Kirra Beach
Where To Eat
This is our fave place and it's totally underrated! Cafe All Sorts is run by two legends and they have good, strong coffee and utterly delicious food. (We recommend the Savoury Breakfast). This place has awesome beach views and the service is top notch. It's a local favourite and is rarely overly busy, unlike the one on the corner which is a tourist hub with so-so service.

Note that the name has changed to Love St Store. Owned by our friend Em, Love St is a local secret! A younger crowd and an epid upstairs region where you can lounge out and use your laptop or chill on the sofas all day long. Check out their little retail store too which sells locally made surf-related art and homewares, as well as some awesome bikinis and books. The retail shop has great gifts - not the cheesy stuff you find in most tourist shops, but gorgeous jewellery by some of our locals, and pottery and more. When in Kirra, we're here every day.

By far our favourite cafe and a gorgeous homewares shop to boot. The cafe is standard pricing but be warned, the homewares aren't cheap! A gorgeous place to meet a friend for a cuppa and a browse for inspiration.

Our fave wave spot. It's quite busy for surfers but it's a great place to sit by the wall and watch the surf smash against the rocks. Your choice of either Rainbow Bay beach or Froggy's beach for the sun lovers. They sit on either side of snapper.

Check out another fave beach and a great place for short board surfing. Don't forget to meander around further south for the family-friendly Little DBah where the waves are calm and great for snorkeling and swimming.

Another calm and beautiful spot for paddle boarding and swimming. It's especially good for sea turtle spotting. Have a nice walk around, take a dip, or rent a kayak and paddle about. There's a market here on Sundays and a popular fish and chip shack too.

You won't regret the climb. Go early and watch the sunset. Best views you'll ever see here in Kirra. Bring a bottle of wine and the picnic basket provided and have a romantic evening.

We love the Evo Village and it is a must see! Also, just having a drive into the Currumbin Valley is soooo worth it. Check out the rock pools. You'll need a car for this.

The best little village for cafes, shopping and a bit of nightlife with a couple cute restaurants and bars.

Cooly Beaches busy and bustling? Head to North Kirra and Bilinga, the opposite direction of coolangatta. Walk along the beach across from your place, or head up the footpath to enjoy the more serene and quieter beaches that tourists rarely visit.

Fun Stuff
We love this place for a visit or two but it is a bit touristy. You'll get to hold a koala for a fee and have your picture taken, which is nice if you don't come to Australia often. We prefer the calmness and authenticity of a smaller wildlife spot, David Fleays, but it's in Burleigh which you'll need a car to get to. We've included it in this guidebook for you to have a look at.
