We had such a wonderful afternoon with Coastal Cruises Mooloolaba. It was such a unique way to enjoy lunch on the Sunshine Coast. We cruised along the Mooloolah River and through the canals, taking in the beautiful waterfront homes and even spotting Steve Irwin’s Croc One marine research vessel. The highlight for me was watching our fresh seafood come onboard straight from the Mooloolaba fish markets and then arrive at our table. We enjoyed delicious local seafood including Mooloolaba prawns, Moreton Bay bugs and oysters, along with freshly made cocktails from the onboard bar. Highly recommend getting the pina coloda and summer gin cocktails! The boat was comfortable, the table service was great and the onboard commentary added another nice touch to the experience. Such a lovely option for a relaxed afternoon with friends, a date or a special occasion. Definitely one of those Sunshine Coast experiences worth doing!

We received such a warm welcome and really enjoyed the cruise. The boat has everything you need, and the crew is very friendly and attentive. The fresh seafood is a lovely touch, and the little stories and anecdotes shared along the way make the experience even more interesting, giving us a better understanding of the history of the canals and the surrounding area. Thank you to the whole team for this wonderful experience!

Dissapointed with a lunch cruise. There was not enough seats for myself and my husband. Needed to get an extra table and sit right near the smelly boat motor. Could not hear the commentary nor see anything really. Was a little away from my husband it was even difficult to hear him talk. Dissapointed with this experience
