No boat licence is required, so anyone can captain these eco-friendly boats—perfect for first-time skippers.
With quiet, zero-emission electric motors, it’s a sustainable way to enjoy the Nerang River without noise or fumes.
Bring your own food and drinks for an unforgettable floating picnic. You may bring up to two alcoholic beverages per person, but the skipper must remain at a 0.00 BAC.
GoBoat is pet-friendly, so your dog can come too.

What to expect
Depending on the weather and tide conditions — both of which can impact your travel time — you can sail past the following locations based on your selected booking duration:
1-Hour Booking: Sail either past the Home of the Arts to the southern end of Surfers Paradise, or down to the Southport–Burleigh Road Bridge, depending on tide direction.
2-Hour Booking: Enjoy a longer journey, heading as far north as Budds Beach and the Marriott Hotel, or south to Cascade Gardens and beyond the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.
3-Hour Booking: Tides permitting, you’ll be able to travel as far north as Macintosh Island and Sundale Bridge — the limit of our approved operating area.
Upon arrival, you’ll receive a 15-minute safety briefing, a map of our operational area, instructions on how to operate the vessel, and information on where to find safety equipment on board. Once you're confident, you’ll take the captain’s seat and set sail.
Whether it’s a celebration or simply some outdoor fun, GoBoat lets you enjoy quality time with the people you love. Each boat seats up to eight people and includes a central picnic table.
It’s perfect for families, couples, or small groups seeking a peaceful, memorable outing on the water. Book your experience today and soak in the beautiful views the Gold Coast has to offer.
