Source detail: Species and tides from the City of Gold Coast platform page. The jetty has no name in OpenStreetMap, so the coordinate is the adjacent OpenStreetMap slipway, which sits within 75 m of the council's own map pin. Queensland marine park zoning service places this point in or beside the Moreton Bay Marine Park Habitat Protection Zone and the Coombabah Fish Habitat Area; no green zone within 300 m.
