Anchorages
The coastline around Gladstone Marina provides plenty of opportunity to explore, with sheltered anchorages providing a perfect place to relax, try your hand at fishing or to soak in the scenery.
It is advisable to keep your eye on the tides and consult your charts. Access to most places is possible for all, however for deeper draft vessels access to some anchorages is dependent on tides. Some of the more popular anchorages include:
Gladstone Harbour
Gladstone Harbour and Port Curtis provide numerous anchorages and shelter. Popular anchorages are off Oaks Beach, South End, Farmers Point and Gatcombe Head. Each spot has advantages in different weather conditions.
Town of 1770

Contact Volunteer Marina Rescue Round Hill (Call Sign VMR 477 on VHF 81 or 82 or phone 07 4974 9383) for information on accessing the Town of 1770. Access is tidal and the channel does shift.
