Chevron IslandGold Coast Neighbourhood
Chevron Island is a small neighbourhood sitting in the middle of Nerang River and provides access from Bundall to Surfers Paradise, and officially is classed as the suburb of Surfers Paradise. There's a range of older three-story walk-ups, waterfront mansions and older-style apartments which means that there is something for every buyer in this area.
There is a true community feel in this village, with many small businesses, cafes, restaurants, bars and boutiques lining the main street. Chevron Island plays a vital role in the Arts and Culture Precinct, seamlessly connected to Surfers Paradise through the recently constructed Green Bridge. This island serves as a significant extension of the precinct, which is centred around the renowned Home of The Arts (HOTA).
The area has long been a favourite with holidaymakers as well as young singles looking to live close enough to Surfers Paradise but without all the craziness. The Cafe Culture is thriving and there is a great mix of people enjoying the al fresco dining. Nearby destinations for shopping, dining, and world-class entertainment include Pacific Fair Shopping Centre, Capri on Via Roma, and The Star Casino.
