The world's first sand hostel opens on Australia's Gold Coast

  • 7 years ago
Hostelworld and Gold Coast Tourism commissioned world champion sand sculptor Dennis Massoud, or 'Sandman' as he is known, to create the first ever 'sandcastle hostel' in the world. The impressive structure is straight out of the very golden sand the area is famous for. It took more than 26 tons of sand and 21 days to create the hostel on Broadbeach on the Gold Coast, Australia.
