Surfer's Paradise, located on the Gold Coast, is the craziest city I've been to yet. Initially when I heard of Surfer's I figured nice small tourist town...WRONG. Think big city, big buildings and a lot of people. Apart from rarely not seeing anyone over the age of 30, Surfer's Paradise is a backpackers dream where 1000's of people go in and out to stay just for the weekend. After a 2 hour bus/train trip we arrived to only find the city was full and my group literally got the last beds available in any hostel in the surrounding area. The beachers were amazing, the swells were perfect, the water (for winter) was warm, the shopping was expensive, there was plenty to do and to see and everyone in the giant city of college students was in high spirits.

Nice sunset photo ... but why is the sun setting behind you, away from the ocean?
(A California-centric question.)
Okay two comments:
First - I see you have affiliated yourself with a gang: What rank are you in their establishment and was it for protection or the social acceptance that you joined?
Second - I don't mean to quibble but what are "beachers"?
