Australia’s leading luxury motor yacht builder, Riviera, is offering a rare opportunity to tour its world-class manufacturing facility in Coomera during the 2025 World Boating Day celebrations.
The exclusive 90-minute escorted tour will take place on Saturday, May 24th, from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM, giving visitors a firsthand look at the largest motor yacht production site in the Southern Hemisphere. Situated within the Gold Coast Marine Precinct, Riviera’s 16.8-hectare facility employs a skilled team that crafts around 150 luxury motor yachts annually, ranging from 38 to 78 feet, for clients worldwide.
Attendees will witness the full boat-building process, from lamination to final launching and quality control, and meet Riviera’s expert craftspeople. This experience offers a unique insight for boating enthusiasts and those considering a career in the marine industry.
Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst said, “Over 45 years, we have launched more than 6,000 motor yachts cruising globally and developed hundreds of master craftspeople. This tour is a rare chance to see how our Queensland-based company has become a world leader in yacht building.”
With over half of Riviera’s new yachts exported internationally, the tour highlights the brand’s global reputation rooted in local expertise.
