Mooloolaba Coast Guard

The Coast Guard plays an extremely important role in the safety of mariners around our vast Australian coastline, far out to sea, and in many of our inland waterways.

Queensland Harbour Masters Office

​The Harbour Master is responsible for safety in a port. They make sure: 

•    the port is safe for ships to navigate to and from their berth to load and unload their cargo;  

•    there is sufficient depth of water in the ship channels and alongside the wharfs, jetties and piers within the port;

•    if  there is not enough depth, the Harbour Master must warn shipping visiting the port and arrange for the channel to be dredged to the required depth;

•    navigation marks are in position to assist ships navigate within the port.

Harbour Masters usually supervise the work of the harbour pilots making sure they provide a good service.

Harbour Masters make sure that ships using the port obey the port laws and other regulations.  The Harbour Master can lay charges against people who break the port’s laws and take them to court where they may be fined.

Vessel Quarantine

Australian Quarantine Inspection & Service

​Vessels entering Australia could unknowingly carry unwanted pests and diseases that can threaten our unique flora and fauna, our aquaculture and agricultural industries as well as human health. Australia accounts for approximately 10 per cent of the world’s biodiversity so it is important that the spread of pests and diseases is prevented - making Australia's quarantine laws among the strictest in the world.
