The station operates 24 hours per day, with live presenters providing personal contact with listeners. From 6.00am to 6.00pm the Committee of Management dictates the type of programming, such as news, sport, music and special reports.
Adelaide's Coast FM's programming has a very heavy bias towards popular rock and pop music from the 1950s, '60s and '70s, which suits the main audience who are 39 years plus. Coast FM also features country music, every day from 2pm to 4pm.
