Yes, we have Fridges & Eskies and we also provide ice.

We mainly operate in the calm, protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater. Where to go very much depends on what you would like to do and how long your boat charter is for so please feel free to discuss this with our team. In a 3-hour charter during the day our guests usually love a swim stop at Wavebreak Island where you can enjoy the range of island activities on board. Your skipper is knowledgeable in the local area and will make recommendations based on the conditions on the day. If you don’t wish to swim in a 3-hour charter you can instead opt to sail further north along the inside of South Stradbroke Island and see the millionaires mansions at Sovereign Islands.

In the evening we will generally sail north to watch the sunset and return to the southern part of the Broadwater to enjoy the city lights after dark which are just beautiful.

We mainly operate in the calm, protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater. If we go offshore (into the open ocean) there is a possibility of large waves.

We have welcomed several guests on board with limited mobility. However, we do realise that each individual is different in terms of ability and what they are comfortable with. Please take a look at the 360 tours on the ‘ Our Boats ’ page for an idea of getting around the boats and do bear in mind a big step up (or carry) is required to board the boats at the marina. Our friendly team will be happy to discuss further to ensure you and your guests are comfortable prior to making a booking.

Click here to fill out an enquiry form and you will quickly get all the info you need including availability, pricing, inclusions etc. You can also book online! Then it is simply a matter of paying your deposit to secure your preferred date. But don’t dawdle as we quickly book out and we don’t want you to be disappointed.

Tips for Planning Luxury Cruises on the Gold Coast Broadwater

If you are planning a day out or a weekend away in the waters off the Gold Coast, here are some tips to make your escape more enjoyable. 

•  Time of Year – Firstly, know which time of the year you want to book a luxury boat charter on the Gold Coast. Weather plays a big part in the type of experience you are seeking. For instance, during peak summer, it’s often hot and humid, and rain can be frequent and heavy. During the winter, it is drier; however, the evenings can be cold. Fortunately, you don’t have to let the rain bother you too much. Our yacht has many indoor spaces for you to enjoy and the Back Deck and Saloon are completely weather-proof.
• Food and Drinks – With our commercial-size kitchen,  you can hire a caterer and enjoy professionally-prepared dishes. Or, you can throw some snags on the BBQ and chat as you share a casual lunch togethr.  We have all the platters, plates and cutlery you could possibly require so there is no need to bring any plastic plates or utensils onboard during your luxury boat hire. 
• Time of Day – Do you enjoy the sunset and the stars or want a warm day for swimming and sun-bathing on the bow of the MV Bacchus? You may choose to enjoy the sunset with bubbly and light snacks to watch the lights of Surfers Paradise and sneak a peek inside the waterfront mansions as you cruise the Broadwater under the stars.  The MV Bacchus is well-lit for socialising under the stars with twinkling bistro lights on the Sky Lounge at the bow.   
• Swimming or Socialising? You need to discuss any swimming options with our Booking Agent beforehand as the Broadwater can have dangerous tides and currents and not all cruise times are suitable for swimming.  The size of the MV Bacchus makes it difficult to anchor too close to land so swimmers must be proficient.   The MV Bacchus has a swim mat onboard and range of floatation toys for guests to enjoy.  There is also a new 16-foot water trampoline available.  Ask our booking agent Janine about it.

How can Gold Coast Luxury Boat Charters help you?

There are many ways for you to use our well-appointed luxury yacht: 

Corporate Events : Plan your next corporate event on a chartered boat. Having your corporate event on a luxury yacht will not only impress your guests, but it will offer your staff a VIP experience in which you can show them how much they mean to the functioning of your company.

Parties and Special Occasions : You can also use a yacht for special occasions such as an engagement party, a wedding anniversary, a wedding, or even a hens or bucks party. Not only will the setting and the views impress your guests − but having this as your background for your photos will be pure magic. 

Family Fun Days : Another option is to charter a yacht simply to unwind. Once onboard, you can enjoy a sunset, or luxuriate in a mini holiday or by spending time on board for a weekend trip away with friends or family. You can either swim or simply work on your tan the choice is up to you. 

Just wanted to say thanks for an awesome trip. The boat was absolutely beautiful, and the service was excellent! You all seem like such lovely people, who really enjoy what you do. My daughter Mia is still talking about how much she enjoyed the experience.  Thanks again.

An Unforgettable Yacht Cruise Around the Gold Coast Broadwater

Beyond the mainland, a short cruise will see you come upon the beautiful islands of Wave Break and South Stradbroke where watersports are king.

For intrepid explorers, the Gold Coast also provides a range of activities to suit those chasing a thrill. From surfing the world-renowned waves of Surfer’s Paradise and jet-skiing along the coastline to scuba-diving the underwater world of the Scottish Prince shipwreck – there really is something for everyone.

While the Gold Coast’s Summer Season seems to be at its height in November to March, it is a popular destination in the cooler months of April to October with yacht clients looking for warmer waters. This time also coincides with the migration of humpback whales from Antarctica to Australia’s east Coast – what more could you ask for?

Boat Hire in Gold Coast

Sun, surf, sand, scenery and a party scene – the Gold Coast has it all. With its famous beaches and winding waterways, the Goldie is the ultimate destination for on-water experiences. Sail the calm waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater, take your family or friends out for a boat party in Surfers Paradise or cruise the Gold Coast canals in style. The GC is Gold Class.

With warm weather all year round and beaches, islands and national parks within easy reach, the Gold Coast is the perfect place to explore and enjoy by boat. Here's what you need to know to make the most of your Floatspace private boat experience on Queensland ’s Gold Coast.

Boat hire in Gold Coast for any budget, for any occasion

From budget-friendly boats to luxury super yachts, Floatspace has flexible Gold Coast boat hire options that cover all budgets, group sizes and event types.

All boats cater to different kinds of experiences, including family day trips, birthday parties, hens parties, bucks parties, engagement parties, weddings and corporate functions. Every boat has a qualified captain and crew on board, so you can relax and just live that carefree boat life.

For smaller groups and families, Floatspace has motor boats, catamarans and yachts that are perfect for adventures around GC hotspots like the lively hub of Surfers Paradise or the more tranquil South Stradbroke Island. Boat hire prices may vary, but you may pay as little as $325 an hour (on Nautilus or Moreton Magic , if you were to BYO food and drink).

For a medium-sized group of, say, 45 guests, you may pay from $990 an hour on a boat like MV Aki , an elegant luxury motor yacht that will give you a fine taste of the high life.

If you’re planning a Gold Coast boat party for a group of 80 or more, or simply want to experience A-list luxury, Floatspace’s verified Luxe super yachts offer the ‘wow’ moments you’re after. Such super yacht wonders include Sun Goddess (from $1243 per hour, up to 130 guests) and the world-famous YOT Club (from $4900 per hour, up to 400 guests). With state-of-the-art sound systems, multiple bars and spacious entertaining spaces, these are perfect settings for exclusive corporate events, weddings and milestone birthdays.

When hiring a boat, you have the flexibility to choose what kind of food and drink experience you want to have. Many boats allow BYO food and drink and some even have BBQs on board.

For special occasions, you might want to book a full catering and drinks package. Some boats have full high-end commercial kitchens with five-star catering to rival any of the Gold Coast’s fine dining establishments. Fancy that!

Things to do on the Gold Coast by boat

Floatspace boats can pick you up from various locations on the Gold Coast, including Marina Mirage, Broadwater and Southport. Where you go next and what you do is all up to you, but here are a few ideas for things to do and see.

If you’re having a boat party, you can’t go wrong with a cruise along the Gold Coast canals, with their jaw-dropping waterfront mansions providing the perfect backdrop for any event. Hot tip: the Sovereign Islands are home to the Gold Coast’s biggest mansion, a $45 million trophy home you can gawk at from the water.

For families or friends going out for a half-day trip, Wave Break Island is a favourite on the Gold Coast Broadwater. This manmade island is perfect for snorkelling, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, beach cricket, beach volleyball or simply enjoying a picnic. The short journey from Marina Mirage to Wave Break Island is full of views, too: Palazzo Versace, Sea World and the Broadwater Parklands.

If you’ve got more time on your hands, head up to Tipplers on South Stradbroke Island to slow down the pace. Only accessible by private boat, Tipplers has a campground, unspoiled native bushlands and a prime vantage point for whale watching from June to October. 'South Straddie', as the locals call it, is a down-to-earth favourite with surfing, swimming, bushwalking and native wildlife throughout the 1800-hectare conservation park.

And that’s just the start of it. Book your Gold Coast experience with Floatspace now.
