Nobby Beach is a small pocket in the Mermaid Beach area of the Gold Coast shoreline, it’s Between two fairly high populated beach zones (Broadbeach and Burleigh Heads ). It’s a low rise zoned area with minimal apartments going higher than around 8 levels (few of them), a local community of permanent residents and during holiday season you’ll see families creating memories here.
Thank goodness we don’t experience as much of the drunken nightlife as the more populated areas of the Gold Coast, although, over the past 3 years or so we’ve seen the local off street shops accomodating new young adults taking their alcoholic rights of passage at a few new additions of bars that have sprouted up!
All in all, it’s a settled area that accommodates anyone, who gravitates towards a slower paced environment, minimal to moderate traffic (except for the Gold Coast Highway) which isn’t a huge bother throughout the week weekdays and off peak season - peak season is still still pleasant as far as crowds are concerned
My in-laws purchased a unit here in the 80’s, a modest 2 bedroom unit, nothing flask like some more updated apartments here …. but the fact that we can spend a lot of time here (weekends or weeks at a time) from the ever increasing population of Brisbane City, is enough for us!
Hubby & I are in our own bubble without the chaos like some of the other coastline...
