About this tour
Ride to the top of Q1 on the Gold Coast and take in unobstructed views across 360 degrees from 230 metres up. SkyPoint is Australia's sole beachside observation deck, straddling Surfers Paradise with sightlines that sweep the shoreline, urban sprawl, and hinterland ranges all at once. Spend two hours scanning the horizon, or settle into the bar and bistro to watch the coast shift through daylight into evening.

What to expect
You'll ascend to the top of Q1, where the viewing platform opens up with unobstructed sight lines in every direction. On a clear day, you'll trace the Gold Coast's curve, spot the hinterland ridges inland, and watch the sprawl of Surfers Paradise spread beneath you. The bar and bistro sits within the same space, so you can grab a coffee at sunrise or a drink as the city lights flicker on. Crowds vary by time of day; early mornings and weekday visits tend quieter. The deck is sheltered but exposed to weather, so dress accordingly.
Good to know
Wheelchair users and pram-pushers navigate all areas without issue. Under-18s must be accompanied by a paying adult aged 25 or over throughout your visit. Public transport is nearby; no hotel transfers included. Gratuities and food/drinks are separate costs.
