History
The Broadwater was an important coastal corridor for the Yugambeh people and later developed into the Gold Coast’s recreational marina network during the 20th century.
Conservation
Avoid feeding or approaching wildlife; keep litter secured on board and use reef-friendly sunscreen to reduce impacts on local marine ecosystems.

Arrive Early for Best Boarding
Be at the marina 10–15 minutes before departure to secure preferred seating and a smooth boarding process.
Sun Protection is Non-Negotiable
Bring sunscreen, a brimmed hat and sunglasses—reflected sun off water intensifies UV exposure on the Broadwater.
Wear Non-Slip Footwear
Decks can be wet; flat, non-slip shoes keep you steady when moving around the yacht.
Plan for Wildlife Viewing
Scan ahead and keep cameras ready—dolphins and turtles surface briefly and unpredictably, so stay alert.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
Protects skin from strong coastal sun reflected off the water.
