Moai Gatherings - Redlands Coast Community

💛 Absolutely love this. 💛

This is exactly the kind of community we’re creating with Moai Gatherings — a space with intention where people can find the right connections for themselves.

It’s not about us doing everything for people — it’s about providing the environment where friendships, belonging, and support can grow naturally. 🌿✨

We believe everyone deserves a circle to lean on, and we’re here to help make that possible. 🌊

✨ What a day on the bay!

Our Moai crew hit the water at Raby Bay this afternoon for a relaxed social paddle — sunshine, salty smiles, and plenty of connection along the way. ☀️💙

We even stopped to share lunch and a few laughs, reminding us what Moai Gatherings is all about: slowing down, enjoying nature, and making memories together.

👉 Want to come along next time? Whether on your own board, with family, or trying something new for the first time, send us a message — we love welcoming new faces (and no board, no problem with Bay Island Water Sports!).

We’re kicking things off with an open paddle + picnic — the perfect way to gather in nature, share some laughs, and start this new chapter together. 💛

This is just the beginning — with Moai Circles by the fire and more Adventures on the water rolling out over spring and summer, there’s so much to look forward to.

Let’s paddle into the season with heart, community, and a little saltwater magic. 🌊💫

🏝️ 💛 R U OK? Day 💛 🔥

Sometimes the most meaningful conversations happen in the quiet moments — paddling across the bay, sitting by a fire, or simply sharing a walk together. Away from the rush, we can really see and hear each other.

R U OK? Day is a reminder of something simple but powerful: taking the time to check in with the people around us. A gentle “R U OK?” can open the door to connection, care, and healing.

Here’s how we can show up for each other:
💬 Ask the question with kindness.
👂 Listen without judgement.
💛 Offer support, however you can.

At Moai Gatherings, we believe life is better when we walk it together. Just like the tradition of Moai in Japan — circles of friendship and belonging — we’re here to remind each other that we don’t have to carry life’s challenges alone.

So today, and every day, let’s slow down, reach out, and nurture the bonds that keep us strong. Because sometimes, the smallest question can make the biggest difference. 💛

If you or someone you know is doing it tough, support is available:
📞 Lifeline: 13 11 14
🌐 ruok.org.au

Let’s keep the conversations flowing, today and always. ✨

✨ Last night’s Moai adventure took us ice skating!
We had a small group hit the rink for some fun on the ice ⛸️❄️ — laughter, wobbly legs, and plenty of smiles.

What we love most? Moai Gatherings is for everyone — families, kids, and grown-ups alike. Whether it’s around the fire, on the water, or out trying something new together, it’s all about connection, fun, and belonging.
