GPC maintains an open-door policy on all port operations, implementing this policy through the offering of port tours.
Industry Tours
As part of the Gladstone Area Promotion and Development Limited's 'Industry Tour' initiative, GPC is one of four major local industries providing visitors and locals with a free fortnightly tour of their operations.
Tour participants visit Auckland Hill, gaining an overview of Port Central (Auckland Point and Barney Point), Gladstone Marina and the world’s fourth largest coal terminal RG Tanna Coal Terminal. These tours are conducted every second Tuesday morning between March and November. For more information and to book a tour, please contact
Gladstone Area Promotion and Development Limited (GAPDL) on 07 4972 4000.
Harbour Tours
Each month GPC arranges a harbour tour in conjunction with GAPDL for local residents to see what is going on in our harbour and to learn more about the Western Basin Dredging and Disposal Project. The two hour tour leaves Gladstone Marina and travels past RG Tanna Coal Terminal, Curtis Island, the reclamation zone at Fishermans Landing and back into the Marina.
For more information, please visit our Western Basin Project website.
Specialised Group Tours
GPC also provides tours for school groups, community organisations and special interest groups. School groups are provided with a tailored tour of our port facilities, with a specific focus on class subjects if/when required.
