Protected by the island from strong currents and ocean waves, the lagoon-like waters are perfect for swimming, fishing, boating and sailing. Humpback whales migrate each year and can be seen off the eastern beaches. With world famous surf breaks, mountainous sand dunes, and the spectacular expanse of the Coral Sea, South Stradbroke is bliss redefined. Istania is its jewel!
Istania Sth Stradbroke is located in Queensland approximately an hours drive south of Brisbane airport or 30 min drive North of the Coolangatta airport at the Gold Coast. ( see extra services tab for airport transfers)
By car, drive to “ Runaway Bay” Marina & then take a water taxi to the private jetty of Istania, which is a short 15 to 20 mins by boat. ( see extra services tab for Water Taxi)
Catch a Water Taxi from Runaway Bay or take your own boat and moor it on Istania's jetty.

ISTANIA WATERWAYS MAP STH STRADBROKE
If coming by your own boat see below for the waterways map.
Istania is on the last water way.
Keep going until you come to the Couran Point water ways, turn right when you see the open wider water and you will see Couran points Marina berths in the middle of the water ways. Istania is opposite them on your right whilst driving down.
There is an empty block on the corner and Istania is on the right of that. There is a sign on the jetty with Istania on it. You can moor your boat on our Istania Jetty and then come on up!
Otherwise you get a water taxi from Runaway Bay Marina and he will take to to the jetty of Istania. ( about 15 to 20 mins by boat)
It’s a great location as it is a much wider water way and you can sit on the verandah and watch the boats go by ( with a nice glass or two!!)
It is also close walking distance to Couran Point should you want to go and have a meal or a drink there.
