On the water

Out on the Broadwater? Make it a gelato stop.

A day on the water deserves a little wonder.

Gelato Wonderland is at the Aqua Complex in Labrador, beside the Broadwater — handmade gelato, made here in small batches. Have a scoop on shore, or take some back for the crew.

A shore stop worth making

Stretch your legs, choose your flavours and take a break by the water. We’re an independent, family-owned gelato shop, making creamy favourites with Maleny Dairies milk and cream alongside fruit sorbets and a plant-based selection.

Mini scoops are the unit here, so a Piccolo is three flavours rather than one — useful when nobody on board can agree.

Our own tables sit directly outside the door, under cover — somewhere to sit out a shower or get out of the wind for a bit before you head back to the water.

Something for the whole crew

Familiar favourites and rotating creations, with vegan and sorbet choices in the cabinet. What’s in changes, so it’s worth a look before you come ashore.

Taking some back to the boat

Our 500 mL take-home tub travels better than a cup does. Bring an esky and frozen ice packs if it’s going back on board, keep it cold, and enjoy it sooner rather than later — gelato is softer than supermarket ice cream and it doesn’t forgive a warm afternoon.

Finding us

We’re at Shop 14, Aqua, 300 Marine Parade, Labrador, on the corner of Marine Parade and Imperial Parade. Our door is on the Imperial Parade side, between Butter Bodega and Rev It Up Pizza — not on the Marine Parade frontage, which is the thing most first-time visitors get wrong.

Coming by car instead? There’s free underground parking, entered from Imperial Parade.

Check where you’re allowed to tie up and come ashore before you plan around it, and have a look at the signage on the day — access conditions along the foreshore aren’t ours to promise.

A little wonder on your next Broadwater run

Whether it’s one scoop on the way past or a tub to share back on board, we’d be glad to see you.
