A Wonderful Cruise - A very relaxing and great way to see the beauty of Surfers Paradise in front of the setting sun. From million dollar shoreline homes to breathtaking views, with a cocktail in hand and some wonderful music to enjoy, it really is a fantastic way to relax and soak up the atmosphere.

Relaxing sunset cruise for all ages - What a relaxing way to see the area! The leisurely cruise took us by beautiful homes, under bridges, marinas, and to see the skyline. The drinks were delicious and large and a great price! Lots of snacks included with cheese, salami, crackers, and grapes. Great trip!

NY eve sunset cruise - The lady at the ticket booth was super nice, we arrived on NY eye and realised I had booked for end Jan by mistake. She fit us in and was really helpful. The cruise is a great opportunity to see a lot of city. The food was pretty average but at least some nibbles were provided. I would recommend this cruise, but don't expect anything fancy.
