Great sunset cruise and view from the water - Loved the Milbi sunset cruise. Highly recommend! The skipper John and mates Jackie and Glenn were extremely accommodating. They first served complimentary drinks, shared charcuterie snacks, and then stopped at Sandy Cay for a pretty view of the sunset. Lots of fun!

Beautiful area, great crew, fine service, worth every penny of it. - 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.

Great way to see the sunset and learn more about the local area - 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.

Relaxing, congenial and informative - 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.

A very special experience - 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

Escape to Paradise - 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.
