1.5 Hr Afternoon Explorer Cruise

Wind down from a busy day with chilled tunes,
frosty drinks at the bar, and tasty bites on the menu.

There is simply no better place to be on a sun-drenched afternoon than on the water with a cocktail in hand, soaking up views of the Gold Coast Broadwater and iconic Surfers Paradise skyline. Departing from a convenient location in the heart of Surfers Paradise, step aboard the Spirit of Elston for a 1.5-hour sightseeing cruise. Enjoy the comfortable, air-conditioned lower deck and 360-degree views from the open-top sun deck. Witness local wildlife, admire multi-million dollar yachts at Marina Mirage, and the rich and famous magnificent homes, accompanied by entertaining commentary from our friendly crew. An afternoon cruise is one of the best ways to see the Gold Coast, so be sure to bring your camera to capture the beautiful lighting from the end of day sunshine.
