Party Cruises Gold Coast

With our party boat cruise, you certainly can choose a custom route or destination for our pontoon boat. You can opt for a Canal Cruise, River Cruise or Island Cruise. If you hire the entire boat, you can indulge in the luxury of all three! You are only limited by time constraints and the vessel’s legal limitations. If you don’t know the area, or you need some ideas to pull off the perfect date, call us, and we will be happy to help get you squared away with a quote and suggestions. It’s all up to you!

Our boat is moored in Southport at the Southport Yacht Club Marina on the Gold Coast. We offer pickup and drop off at different points along the Gold Coast coastline. If you have access to a private jetty or prefer to be picked up at a public jetty, we can accommodate you where possible. Call us to discuss your proposed location.

The maximum legal capacity of our Gold Coast Party Boat for hire is 22 people. However, for safety reasons and guest management, along with additional crew required from time to time and individual booking requirements, we allow 16 guests. That number does not include the skipper and any crew counted in addition where required.

However, our new boat Mirage Sun 45, will be available from November onwards for any event, and it can carry a maximum of 45 people.

No. Even though all our hires meet the Australian Maritime Safety Authority’s category for a pontoon boat with no license required to operate in sheltered waters, each of our hires is inclusive of an experienced skipper who steers and pilots the boat. At this time, the boat is not available for hire without our professional skipper at the helm. The Bond required to provide self-drive hire services costs more than hiring the boat, complete with our seasoned skipper who knows the waterways and Australian Maritime laws.

We offer two options with our private boat hire and private boat cruises. The first option most certainly allows our guests to be completely self-catering. If you choose that option, then we provide the BBQ facilities for you to cook your food, and we can even cook it for you.

The second option is that you can purchase a catered pack from us when you book your party boat hire and BBQ package. We offer several catered packages that remove the stress and time required to put something together yourself. If you tell us your reason for hiring the party boat or the BBQ boat, we can even put together a tailor-made package for your special occasion. 

The prices and content of the packages would be POA and dependant on the budget category chosen. We start with a basic sausage sizzle and side salads for $11 pp up to our range of steak and multiple side dishes for $22 pp.

All alcohol is BYO. We are happy to provide ice-filled ice chests to keep your drinks cold. We recommend that spirits are premixed in cans or bottles for convenience and that wine or champagne has enough disposable flutes and glasses for your guests (with a few spares in case).
