On arrival at the pristine waters of Hope Harbour Marina, the tranquility is palpable. It’s not what you would expect from a facility with 290 premium floating berths. Without the bustling noise and commercial activity of other marinas, this quiet harbour is a safe and secure haven for you and your boat—surprisingly close to everything the Gold Coast has to offer and the most affordable commercial marina in the region.
This hidden gem, tucked away on the far eastern point of Hope Island, is just 2km from the open Gold Coast Broadwater, and easily accessible off the Gold Coast’s M1 by land. Just 20 minutes from the Gold Coast Seaway, you enjoy easy access and convenience, with the marina fairways and purpose-built berths specifically designed to provide plenty of space for all kinds of boats, including multihulls and super yachts.
The peaceful and pristine environment is usually the first thing a customer comments on, says Harbour Master Juanita Erskine. “It’s a unique quality of the marina. It is a lifestyle destination. Hope Harbour is a marina where you can totally relax on your boat.”
The unique offering continues with all the amenities you would expect from a resort location, including access to a floodlit tennis court, BBQ area, and swimming pool during your stay here on the marina, with the added option of accommodation at the Ramada Hotel Hope Harbour.
For those familiar with the Hope Harbour of the past, you will be amazed by the change. The current offering is a product of major transformation since Tasman Marinas purchased the site two and a half years ago. A significant investment in the refurbishment of the marina structure has seen the major overhaul of four piers and the complete rebuild of two others. Hope Harbour was the first marina to utilise the innovative Bellingham composite through rods for the reconstruction.
The Ramada Hotel Hope Harbour has also undergone a major refurbishment and offers great discounts at the restaurant and bar via a VIP card available to marina customers. “The bar is a fantastic venue overlooking the marina. A great place to sit back, relax and be entertained by live music,” says Juanita.
“On top of our premium berths, and given the marina is well protected in all weather conditions, it is arguably the safest location for your boat on the coast,” affirms Juanita.
