Additional Information & Description

Gold Coast by ferry and public transport

The Gold Coast: Go Hopo Explorer Pass combines a day of Hopo ferry travel with a day of travel on the TransLink network. Its practical appeal is the mix of water and land transport: you can use the ferry to reach waterfront destinations, then take buses, trams or trains to explore more of the Gold Coast.

What the pass includes

The pass includes unlimited Hopo ferry rides for one day and unlimited bus, tram and train travel on the TransLink network for one day. That gives you scope to make several journeys rather than planning your outing around a single return trip.

You can use both parts in one day or split them over two consecutive days. Combining them keeps your travel within a single outing; splitting them lets you devote separate days to the ferry and the public transport network. Choose the arrangement that best matches the places you want to visit.

Where you can go

Use the ferry to visit HOTA – Home of the Arts, Surfers Paradise and Marina Mirage. These named destinations give you concrete starting points for planning your route, with local dining areas also part of the ferry-based outing.

The public transport network connects you to shopping areas, theme parks and dining spots. Treat those connections as transport to your chosen destinations: the pass covers travel, rather than describing a fixed sightseeing itinerary. You decide which stops to make and how much time to spend at each.

Arrival and timing

The starting point is 10 Ferny Avenue. Arrive 15 minutes in advance. The listed visit duration is nine hours, so allow a substantial part of your day when planning other activities.

The associated venue is Sea World Cruises, at Sea World Cruise Terminal, 130 Sea World Drive. Keep this address distinct from the stated starting point when arranging your arrival.

Tickets and access

Tickets are delivered instantly, and smartphone tickets are accepted, so you can present your ticket on your phone. Wheelchair access is available.
