The Federation Walk Coastal Reserve borders The Broadwater and makes a clean break from the built-up area as it stretches towards The Spit and Doug Jennings Park. It’s an easy walk across the sand dunes onto the surf beach. There is a very dog-friendly stretch of beach at the top end by the pier with rinse-off bays for the pooches too. tinyurl.com/Federation-Walk-reserve Visitors to this area can snorkel and dive in and around the Broadwater, the Seaway and at Wave Break Island as there is a lot to see. The Seaway on its own has five dive sites within the one area. There are wrecks such as the Scottish Prince and artificial reefs to dive on too. Book a private dive tour with an experienced local dive operator .

Offshore fishing charters are available through different operators for both day trips and overnight. Private tours or longer trips can also be arranged. tinyurl.com/destinationgoldcoast-dive-snorkel
