Currumbin is a suburb in the Gold Coast region of Queensland, Australia. At the 2011 Census, Currumbin had a population of 2,785.
 History
A number of the houses at Currumbin date from the time of its soonest subdivision and the zone holds a significant bunching of fibro shore houses. Since then later improvement has happened incorporating some skyscraper support onto the slope at Pacific Parade. 

Usually the territory holds more common vegetation than different zones of the coast unpaid partially to the challenge of expanding the steep slopes and to some degree to the presence of the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary -a long standing symbol and point of interest at the Gold Coast. The Sanctuary embodies a generous range of arrive on both sides of the expressway adjoining Flat Rock Creek. 
 Geography
The Currumbin region is one of a specific character. Extending from Currumbin Creek in the north to Wyberba Street in the south the range is effectively distinguished as a result of its headlands that activity into the sunny shore. The Pacific Highway skirts to the back of Currumbin making something of a curious backwater. Indeed the increasingly typical business advancement of the Gold Coast Highway is nonattendant as the thruway winds over the headland and past the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. 

At the shore front, Elephant Rock and Currumbin Rock encase a discrete surf vacation spot. Currumbin Alley is an ubiquitous surfing site structured on the bar of Currumbin Creek, absolutely for longboards. Certain lands to the south are just divided from the sunny shore by an undeveloped open street hold and the lifted area furnishes chances for perspectives odd at the coast. 

The Currumbin Valley Reserve is spotted west of Currumbin. Recently, improvements in the territory have begun to obliterate the characteristic rainforests and untamed life. 
Events;
Every year throughout September, the Swell Sculpture Festival is held along the Oceanway at Currumbin between Currumbin Creek and Elephant Rock. Elephant rock gets a platform for a signature fine art. Other fine art is spread out along the Oceanway asphalts and upon the shore and ridge zones. Craftsmanship from the celebration frequently finds its direction onto show on open and private spaces over the Gold Coast locale incorporating a steed in the park at Broadbeach, Fish along the foreshore at Harley Park, Pelicans along the bank of Currumbin Creek, a seal mother and pup along the Oceanway at Miami, a boat up on Point Danger and a metal goddess inside a subdivision at Reedy Creek. 

Adjacent the Currumbin In The Bin short picture celebration as a rule harmonizes with the Swell Sculpture celebration held in the carpark inverse the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary.
