The best place to relax and sight-see on the Gold Coast is on the water!
Join Surfers Paradise River Cruises for a leisurely 1 hour cruise on the waterways, taking in all the impressive sights the Gold Coast has on offer.
Cruise the Nerang River past Chevron Island, Cronin Island and Paradise Waters, then out to the Broadwater past Southport Yacht Club, Mariners Cove, Marina Mirage, Palazzo Versace and Sea World.
From your vantage point on the sundeck, you’ll see the million-dollar homes of the rich and famous, luxury yachts moored at the marina and a variety of ocean life. There is also comfortable indoor seating should you prefer to stay covered.

River Cruise
Absolutely loved it and great value for money, so much so that we booked a second trip at the end of our holiday to do it all over again. We highly recommend the snow cones and the extra touch of snacks on the afternoon cruise was very nice. Very cool that my son got to drive the boat and great commentary by the Captain. Thank you, we will be back next time we're in Australia!
