Gold Coast Ferry Service

Ferries are a popular mode of transportation in Gold Coast. Both the locals as well as the tourists use the Gold Coast Ferry service in order to reach different parts of the city, while enjoying the beauty of its waterways.

Gold Coast has a beautiful coastline, hence ferries and boats have acquired a lot of significance as a popular means of mass transit. The Gold Coast ferry services consist of ferryboats and water taxis.

The ferries operate between Paradise Point, Labrador, Spit, Southport, Surfers Paradise west and central. A large number of steamboats as well as catamarans are used to ferry people across the rivers. From June 2008 onwards, the city will be also using solar powered catamarans to take the passengers from one area to the other. A smaller ferry service also operates between Surfers Paradise South and Gold Coast Convention Center, Jupiter's Casino and Pacific fair.

Water taxis are one of the most unique modes of public transport in Gold Coast. You can board these water taxis from Runaway bay Marina. The offices of these water taxis are also located at several sites in Gold Coast where one can contact officials for information and assistance regarding this unique water transport. One can also hire these taxis to sail to Stradbroke Island, located just 20 minutes away from the mainland.

The Gold Coast ferry service is one of the most expensive modes of transportation found in the city. Their fares are much higher than those of the Surfside Buslines and are considered to be more of a luxury.

The Gold Coast ferry service is the best method of transportation if you want to explore the coastline of the city. The boats are smart and spacious and offer a comfortable ride across the water bodies that surround the city.
