About Aquaduck Gold Coast
Aquaduck Gold Coast runs a one-hour tour in an amphibious vehicle with a large yellow beak. It leaves from its own shop at the corner of Cavill and Ferny Avenues in Surfers Paradise, drives along the Esplanade and Tedder Avenue, then enters the water for a cruise through the canals. A guide talks the group through the sights all the way. There are two ways to bring a crowd. Groups of 15 or more can take discounted seats on the regular departures, sharing the vessel with other passengers, and a single departure can carry up to 90 people. A private charter keeps the vessel to your own guests, at 30 per vessel or 60 across two ducks. Charters can use the normal timetable, or a tailored departure can be arranged on request with pick-ups around Surfers Paradise and Main Beach. The operator's groups page names kids' birthdays, staff Christmas parties, hens nights and corporate charters. The kids' party is a private hour for up to 30 adults and children, with a party host on board. Every child gets a chance to steer once the duck is afloat and takes home a certificate, while the birthday child also receives a captain's hat and a whistle. Families can bring individual food boxes on board, though chips, popcorn and cake should wait until after the tour. Life jackets are carried for every passenger, and there are no fitness requirements for the trip. Send an enquiry to get a price for your group size and departure.
