Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a newcomer to the world of boating, the decision between choosing a marina berth and the sheltered security of dry storage is a choice that can significantly impact your boating experience.
Within the confines of the Gold Coast City Marina (GCCM), the marina berths offer a safe harbour for your vessel to rest. On the flip side, our dry storage award-winning facility promises to cradle your vessel safely away from the elements, shielding it from sun, rain, and salt, ready to launch at a moment’s notice.
GCCM offers both choices, each with its own set of benefits. And, with both options, you can access:
- Our 90 marine trades: Located right at your transom door for the maintenance of your vessel.
- All the necessary amenities: get access to our customer lounge with complimentary WI-FI, toilets, showers, and laundry facilities, ensuring your comfort while at the marina.
- Restaurant by the water: You can enjoy our Quarterdeck Kitchen + Bar restaurant for drinks or delicious meals by the water.
- Proximity: Convenient access to the M1, Coomera rail station, Westfield Coomera, and the Broadwater allows for easy transportation and shopping.
- Fuel Dock: The on-site 24/7 fuel dock guarantees that you’re always ready for your next voyage. You can also get ice and visit our onsite Chandlery.
- Security: With 24-hour security and site-wide CCTV, you can rest assured that your boat is safe and secure.
- Haul Out: Our many lifting options should you need below the line action. We cater for vessels up to 300 t with a 10 m (32ft) beam. 300 t Straddle Carrier, 50 t Straddle Carrier, 14 t Forklift, 12 t Forklift, 45 t Hydraulic Trailer and Boat Ramp
- On-Site First Aid Facility
Below we weigh the advantages of immediate accessibility against long-term preservation, the prices of both options and the freedom of the open water versus the peace of mind that comes with a secure shelter.
