    • Don't shop at Surfer's Paradise, if you can help it. I made it a point to ask the cashier in the hotel where the locals would go for their shopping and I was recommended the Pacific Fair. I wasn't disappointed. Despite the shops looking up-market, the prices for souvenirs were so much more competitive than at Surfer's. Even the Copenhagen Ice-cream. A double scoop of ice-cream in a cone cost me AUD5 at Pacific Fair while a similar scoop at Surfer's cost me AUD5.90.
