Boattime is the Gold Coast's most-reviewed superyacht charter company — not by marketing, but by math. Yachts larger than competitors, warmest crew on the water, guests who return year after year.

We don't chase numbers. We chase moments — the kind that make your guests call us first next time they have something worth celebrating.

“Leave with a memory worth telling.”

Humpbacks,
at close range.

Every year from June to November, fifty thousand humpback whales migrate up the Australian East Coast — straight past the Gold Coast. Sun Goddess takes you out to meet them. Warm galley, hot coffee, marine biologist commentary, and the stability of a 34-metre superyachtthat makes everyone's photos come out sharp.

Easily a must-do attraction. Never imagined I'd see so many whales and even a pod of dolphins. Excellent service — friendly, knowledgeable staff that made us feel welcome the whole time.

An AMAZING day. Staff were brilliant and my grandchildren (6 and 4) were very excited. Loved the boat, the commentary, the crew. Five stars all round — perfect day out.

We watched a whale breach fifty times. At the end of the trip we saw three whales breach and swim together. The trip was worthy, definitely — good seats up top, professional crew.

Where We Sail

Calm waters.
Unhurried routes.

We operate in the sheltered, stable waters of the Broadwater and Moreton Bay — genuinely protected sailing that suits everyone from first-timers to the seasoned. Your skipper tailors the route on the day, reading conditions and guests alike.

Anchor off Wave Break for a swim. Cruise the Sovereign Islands for the mansions. Set course for the Scottish Prince wreck. Nose up to Moreton for a full-day exploration. We've probably done it this week.

Frequently Asked

Before you board.

Everything you need to know before a charter — parking, catering, destinations, mobility. Anything else, our concierge is at the other end of a phone.

Where do your boats depart from?

Our boats are berthed at Muriel Henchman Public Pontoon, Main Beach 4217 — about ten minutes from Surfers Paradise and fifteen from Broadbeach.

Do you offer pre-made charter packages?

Three starting points: Beaches and BBQs — a midday run to the islands, watersports, and buffet. Sunset cocktails and canapés — five o'clock out of Muriel Henchman Public Pontoon into golden hour. Or a fully custom charter — tell us the occasion and we write the afternoon.

What about food and drinks?

Each vessel has two bars with bar-tab or consumption options. Our culinary partners — Private Chefs of Brisbane — handle everything from grazing boards and canapés to gourmet BBQ, buffet, and fine dining. No external food or beverages are permitted onboard.

What destinations can we visit?

Most charters run the calm Broadwater — Wave Break Island, Sanctuary Cove, Jumpinpin, the Scottish Prince wreck, the mansions at Sovereign Islands. When conditions invite, we push north into Moreton Bay for Tangalooma, Moreton Island and Stradbroke.

Will I get seasick?

We operate in the protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater, where swell is minimal. If we head offshore into open ocean there is a possibility of larger waves — your skipper reads the day and the route accordingly.

Are your charters accessible for guests with limited mobility?

Our charters are currently not wheelchair accessible. Boarding requires a step up from the marina pontoon, and space onboard can be limited depending on the vessel and guest needs. In some cases, exceptions may be possible if we are notified at least 1 week before departure. This allows our team to review the requirements, arrange adequate crew support, and confirm whether the charter can be accommodated safely. For safety reasons, electric wheelchairs are not permitted onboard.
