Join us aboard Spirit Junior for a stunning 4-hour island cruise through the Gold Coast’s most beautiful waterways and island destinations. This small-group adventure combines breathtaking views, island exploring, swimming, wildlife encounters, and a delicious Aussie lunch — all in one unforgettable experience.
🏙️ Cruise the Gold Coast Skyline
Your journey begins with a relaxing cruise past the iconic Gold Coast skyline, where city meets sea. Sit back and take in the shimmering views as we make our way toward Wave Break Island, a local favourite for swimming only accessible by boat.
🌊 Swim & Explore Wave Break Island
We’ll drop anchor for an hour at Wave Break Island, the perfect spot to enjoy a refreshing swim in calm, crystal-clear waters. Relax on the beach or dive in for a splash — this island paradise is your playground.

Next, we’ll cruise through the exclusive waterways of Sovereign Island, home to some of the Gold Coast’s most luxurious homes. Enjoy the scenery as we make our way to the famous Tipplers Bar & Café on South Stradbroke Island, a local gem surrounded by natural beauty.
🌿 Bushwalk & Wildlife Adventure
From Tipplers, embark on a gentle 900m bushwalk through lush coastal forest to a secluded surfside beach. Here, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the Coral Sea and the chance to spot native wildlife including wallabies, echidnas, dolphins, dugongs, rays, turtles, marine birds and — if you’re lucky — the rare golden wallaby.
