Flood check, Main Beach

Has Main Beach flooded?

No historic flood extent has been mapped for the Main Beach area by the state or the council.

  • Gold Coast City has been disaster-activated for 24 flood, storm or cyclone events since 2007 — most recently Southern Queensland Flooding, 6 - 20 May 2022.
  • Nearest flood-warning gauge: Air Sea Rescue Alert, South Coast basin — 2 km from the centre of Main Beach.

An extent is the official maximum-inundation line for that event. "Reaches into Main Beach" means the mapped line crosses the suburb boundary — most of the suburb may be well clear of it, which is why the address check below matters. Events are listed only where the state or council has mapped this area.
