Marine Rescue Southport

You'll find Marine Rescue Southport right at the heart of Gold Coast's busiest waterway hub, where the Nerang River meets the Broadwater. This working rescue station doubles as a marina facility, giving you front-row access to the constant action of emergency vessels, water police, and marine traffic heading to South Stradbroke Island. The location puts you within walking distance of Australia Fair Shopping Centre and Southport's restaurant strip, while the adjacent boat ramp makes it one of the most active launch points on the northern Gold Coast.
