The Gold Coast Hinterlander was first printed in 1977, and grew into
one of the strongest community paper in the Albert Shire. Eleven years
later they joined forces with another prominent paper, The Tweed
Leader, to produce The Gold Coast Mail.
The first publication
of the Gold Coast Mail was on Wednesday 10th August 1988. It was a
bi-weekly paper that came out on Wednesdays and Saturdays. After
several different owners, APN bought the Gold Coast Mail in February
1995 and have continued to product a strong community based newspaper.
