What is on the floor

More than 370 electronic gaming machines
More than 20 table games, including blackjack and roulette

Breakwater Guide does not offer any form of gambling, online or offline, and we do not promote any game. This page simply describes the venue so that visitors know what to expect.

Entry rules

18 and over

Under Queensland law, only adults may enter casino gaming areas.

Bring photo ID

A driver licence, passport or proof of age card. Staff may ask at any time.

Hours

Set by the casino and subject to change. Check the official website.

Dress

Smart casual is a safe choice. The casino may refuse entry at its discretion.

Keep it to entertainment

Gambling should be a paid form of entertainment, never a way to make money. Decide on a limit before you arrive, leave cards in your room, take regular breaks and stop when the limit is reached.

Queensland casinos must offer responsible gambling information and self-exclusion. Ask staff at the gaming floor for the venue's responsible gambling contact officer.
