Hervey Bay Boat Club Function Centre
About
Overview & Vibe
The Boat Club Function Centre sits on Buccaneer Drive at Urangan, on the Hervey Bay marina, looking across the Great Sandy Straits to World Heritage-listed K'Gari.
Setting & Style
The Fraser Room is the wedding room and the view is the argument — a hundred and eighty degrees over the Urangan marina and out to K'Gari, with its own private deck and a dedicated bar. It takes a hundred and eighty cabaret style, a hundred and sixty banquet, or three hundred for cocktails. Below it the Lower Deck runs along the boardwalk, partly sheltered and open to the marina, which works as a cocktail space in its own right or as an add-on to a reception upstairs. The Board Room and Compass Room cover smaller gatherings, and the club also has a cinema, a cruise boat and El Puerto's restaurant on site. The functions manager has more than eighteen years in the job and the kitchen regularly caters for four hundred plus.
Ideal For
Couples who want a big waterfront room with a genuinely spectacular outlook, and the option of moving the party down to the boardwalk.
