Ballina is a stunning and quiet coastal town situated in the Northern rivers, roughly 88.6 kilometres south of the Gold Coast Airport. This peaceful beachside oasis is teaming with natural wonders and there are many reasons why tourists and travellers alike will find themselves holidaying in Ballina. Due to the substantial distance, transport to and from the airport will need to be considered beforehand, so as not to cost you an arm and a leg.
Taxi’s from the airport, while in ample supply, will likely do just that. For those in no rush, bus services run periodically from the airport. Your average bus journey will take around two and a half hours, as it includes a 50-minute layover. If you’re looking to save both time and money on your transfer, we suggest a chauffeur-driven transfer with Car Australia. A trip with us can take as little as 55 minutes during off-peak hours. You’ll be transported in one of our executive vehicles from our extensive fleet, ranging from sedans to minibuses. Our aim is to deliver the most convenient and top-quality transfer service, at the most competitive price. Even our booking system was established with convenience in mind, giving you the ability to book and track your trip, all through the use of our mobile app.
