Currumbin Eco-Parkland

The Currumbin Eco-Parkland project will see an important and unique 148-hectare parcel of land at Currumbin preserved for future generations and transformed into the one of the largest eco-parks in Australia.

The site — known to locals as Martha's Farm or Martha's Vineyard — is on the southern end of the Gold Coast incorporating land along the New South Wales border. Once developed, this unique hinterland property is set to create new tourism opportunities in the region.

With a remarkable $31 million investment over the next three years, this initiative aims to enhance the natural surroundings, promote sustainability, and support wildlife conservation efforts. The project builds upon extensive community consultation and a comprehensive ecological study, ensuring a harmonious blend of nature and local amenity.

Once activated, the Currumbin Eco-Parkland will feature sporting and recreational elements for family and community enjoyment, nature based recreational trails, protections for local koala habitats including a fodder eucalypt plantation and provide opportunities for rehabilitation and appreciation of the natural environment through eco-tourism. The new parkland is expected to enhance the Gold Coast’s global reputation as a tourist destination while protecting local flora and fauna for future generations.
