Outstanding value and family friendly. Boat stays in the calmer waters between the shore, Round and Woody Islands, depending on the tides. When the tides are not friendly, it does not hamper a great time on Round Island with the snorkeling, shells to be found, beautiful views and excellent crew. The indigenous guide (from the local Butchulla Clan) delivers a fine presentation on local Aboriginal history and gave cultural demonstrations on music and shared stories and tales. The food is Subway style sandwiches and plenty of fruit. All the fins and extra snorkel gear is provided. I have taken my visitors to Hervey Bay on this cruise several times and it is a spot on bonza of a trip and well worth the price. Highly recommended for families or anyone of any age or ability.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Twilight Cruise. The highlights were walking around Round Island whilst hearing about the local indigenous food, wildlife, and culture. The drinks and food were good and plentiful and loved the Digeridoo (Yidaki) playing and sunset was great too. The captain and our guide were both excellent hosts and knowledgeable.

Beautiful night to enjoy a sunset cruise, was a wonderful end to a weekend of exploring Hervey Bay. Low key, informative & yummy food, definitely worth a look!

The cruise was relaxing, staff friendly and welcoming, food was plentiful and tasty and the welcoming drink as we sailed out of the marina was a great way to start the trip. There was even a choice between dry or sweet champagne which I was very impressed with :) Travis, who was our First Nations guide was warm and humerous and spoke very well, captivating us with his talk on the local area, it's turtles and the history of the didgerdoo. That was particularly interesting, how they are made, the different names for them around the nations, and of course his beautiful playing of it. The weather didn't play the game, the wind had picked up and so we had to sail around the back of the island to calmer waters, which meant we couldn't land and disembark in the regular location. John the skipper managed to get us close to the small island, with maybe a 2 metre, ankle deep walk to the shore and we were given the choice to disembark or stay aboard. Some adventure seekers got off the boat, and explored the small island but most chose to stay aboard as Travis assured us he would do his talk and playing of the didgeridoo on the boat once everyone had reassembled - so that no one missed out. I can imagine that it would have been wonderful to be on the island gathered around Travis as he played the didgeridoo with the sunset behind him. But even still, as with any trip on the water, you can't control the weather and the congenial atmosphere onboard, the staff, the food and the gentle swaying of the boat on the return home with the twinkling lights of Hervey Bay guiding us in, made this a lovely trip that I can highly recommend to anyone visiting this beautiful bay.

We got way more than we expected. Our indigenous guide Aaron was excellent he walked on Round Island with us, smoked fresh oysters and we tasted native spinach, he played the didgeridoo. John the skipper was excellent as was Jackie in the office. Our drinks and platters were delicious. Tonight the weather was perfect as was the sunset

From booking to disembarking this tour was a joy. It is truly like taking a trip to escape to paradise for a few hours. The boat is gentle and perfect for either large groups or solo travellers. The peace and tranquillity aboard the boat are amazing. I came back feeling renewed. It is difficult to find this level of authenticity and professionalism in one place. Every friend or family member who comes to Hervey Bay will be booked on these tours. It's the first place you should call when you are looking for things to do. The sunsets in Hervey Bay are truly beautiful but aboard the boat, you feel like you are witnessing something really special. Did I mention that the boat has a glass bottom? I found the staff to be very polite and accommodating Highly recommend.

Booking and check in were great Once on the boat... all bad - the skipper was terrible and struggled to park the boat on many occasions, including on return to harbour (first time ever ive seen this on an excursion in 20 years around the world...) The guide wasnt interested in the group and just walked off by himself, didnt involve the group in much if anything he did, didnt interact with the group on the boat except when pulling into the harbour and explaining a didgeredoo... We got to walk around 2 small islands, no fish or turtles, nothing worth snorkelling for (location, water conditions), the atmosphere on the boat was non-existnet. When we boarded they joked no management on boat so they could relax, they indicated a few management subordinate jokes, just sounded like disgruntled employees. While i appreciate you cant predict water conditions, everything is that was wrong is in your control, get s better guide, a decent skipper and someone knowledgable on water conditions and alternate sites. The highlight was crystal clear water on the last island, although no fish or coral and sand that collapsed when you walked on it which we found ammusement in!, and we were lucky enough to see a few dolphins about 300m away from the boat Lunch was a 6" subway sandwhich, and no drinks were offered on board..... Overall $240 wasted and 4 hours of the day lost sitting aimlessly on a boat to look at rocky beachs & walk in circles with no purpose, if you do decide to do it, take shoes you dont mind getting wet or lose your feet!.....

An amazing experience! Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful crew. Such a beautiful boat ride with tasty food and informative and fun guide (Aaron) Definitely a must do

We loved our trip despite a couple of niggles. I am sharing them here so that you can be prepared NOT to put you off booking (in fact DO book into this tour. We had shared with the organisers that we had to be back as near to the scheduled return time as possible as we had an appointment we had to keep. We were getting a little anxious when the tour didn’t start on time and the crew decided to serve drinks before leaving the dock. We were concerned that the trip would seem rushed. The boat was full with a work outing. Not an issue, but not the relaxing evening we had envisaged (until we got to our Round Island stop). Just try to make sure you don’t need to rush anywhere immediately after so you can relax into the experience and not worry about time. Boat crew Jimbo an our guide Jo-Jo we’re great. Very knowledgeable and we loved hearing Jo-Jo’s stories - what a character! Unfortunately we dawdled a bit walking around the island and missed much of the indigenous experience. The sunset on its own was well worth the trip - not spectacular but just so peaceful. Nibbles and a drink are included. We had great fun peeling prawns and watching the silver brim congregating for the peelings. Plenty to snack on and even with a full boat I don’t think we managed to get through all of the prawns.
