Save Our Spit Alliance is a not-for-profit community alliance of Gold Coast residents committed to preserving the Gold Coast Spit, The Broadwater and all of our foreshores, beaches and waterways, both now and for future generations.

Just a few shorts years back, the previous State Government was, via SOSA, presented the then-largest ever state petition to Qld Parliament opposing a ship terminal on The Spit or in the Broadwater. Ultimately 38000 people signed, and many more voiced their opposition to it.
