Gold Coast is a healthy place, just watch out for the sun and remember to apply plenty of strong factor sun screen. The Gold Coast has a high standard of health and hygiene and it is unlikely that you will face any problems. The water is safe to drink but bottled water is very popular in Australia and you should drink a lot of water. The greatest danger is the sun and slip on a shirt, slap on sunscreen, and slop on a hat. There are a number of hospitals and for information call them.
