The Gold Coast is famous for its golden beaches, surf breaks, and skyline views — but its café culture is just as bold, energetic, and full of flavour. Whether you’re sipping flat whites steps from the ocean or going deep into the hinterland to meet artisan roasters, Cooee Tours has crafted a coffee journey for every kind of brew lover. These tours blend local knowledge, beachside charm, and a healthy dose of caffeine — all before lunch.
From design-forward espresso bars to sunrise brews and roastery meetups, here are 9 delicious reasons why a Gold Coast coffee tour with Cooee should be your next adventure:
Get to know the café hotspots of Southport, Broadbeach, and Surfers Paradise. This tour includes 3–4 specialty coffee tastings, a toastie or pastry, and behind-the-scenes chats about brew methods and latte art. You’ll walk between stops and get a feel for the city’s vibrant café culture.
Wake up to the magic of morning light along the coastline from Burleigh to Miami. You’ll taste espresso, flat white, and cold brew while enjoying croissants or an acai bowl with a view. Bonus: there’s time for a quick ocean dip and plenty of photo-worthy moments along the way.
Head into the hinterland and visit boutique roasters where you’ll experience coffee at its source. Enjoy a behind-the-scenes roastery tour, a guided cupping session, and demos on brew methods — with fresh beans to take home and snacks to keep you fuelled on the ride.
From fruity single origins to bold espresso shots, each tour is curated to highlight the region’s most exciting brews. Whether you prefer your coffee black, milky, or icy, you’ll find new favourites to love.
Learn what makes Gold Coast cafés stand out — from modern interiors and latte art to sustainability practices and community roots. It’s not just about sipping; it’s about understanding the story behind the cup.
From roasters to baristas to café owners, every tour includes time with passionate people who live and breathe great coffee. You’ll leave inspired — and probably with a few insider tips.
No rushing, no rigid schedules — just relaxed exploration and time to savour every flavour and view. It’s coffee, Gold Coast style.
Each tour captures a different side of the GC — from sleek city stops and barefoot brunches to breezy hinterland drives. Whether you’re dressed for the beach or the brew bar, there’s a tour to match your vibe.
You’ll leave with more than memories — take-home coffee beans, café recs, and maybe even a new brewing trick or two to level up your morning ritual.
From sunrise walks to hidden roasteries, Gold Coast Coffee Tours with Cooee are the perfect way to experience the local scene — one incredible cup at a time.
