Top 5 Boat Tours in Australia

Cairns side (south side ) of the car ferry, Cape Tribulation Rd, Lower Daintree QLD 4873, Australia

“I had a really awesome experience with them. Our guide was very engaging and is clearly very passionate about the wildlife. He told us lots of really interesting stories (and cracked a a lot of great jokes!) about not only the animals but also the rainforest and the entire area. I learned a lot. We saw "Scarface", the biggest crocodile in the area! Overall great views, great guide, great experience.”

Mews Rd, Fremantle WA 6160, Australia

“Been around for many many years...great location and tasty 😋 food...not for the budget minded.”

6961 Arthur Hwy, Port Arthur TAS 7182, Australia

“We are a family of 4 from Brisbane and went on a 5 day holiday to Tasmania. Tasman Island Cruises is a must do for a visit to Tasmania and not to be missed. It was perfect weather and we saw beautiful landscapes with wildlife which will be etched in our memories. Great value for the money you pay and for the contribution that goes towards conservation. Scintillating experience for the whole family and we keep seeing the photos and videos.”

Coral Sea Marina | North Marina Meeting Point B, Airlie Beach QLD 4802, Australia

“Excellent crew on board, thanks to Dan (Skipper) for tasty cooking that everyone enjoyed, specially the steak. We really enjoyed the tour today and for being nice to everyone also with the kids. Patient with everyone and allowed kids/big kids jump in the water is extra bonus. Extra ordinary view, try all they recommend you will not be disappointed but walking is not good with older people. A long walk but it’s worth it. Thanks also to another Dan and Tristan, really appreciate your assistance. Thanks again guys. Hope to comeback soon.🙂”

Shop 14 1/5 Bauer St, Bargara QLD 4670, Australia

“This tour was well run even though we had 155 passengers. We were divided into 5 groups doing various activities and didn't feel crowded at all. Lunch was a buffet and generous. Staff were friendly and helpful, also very knowledgeable on the ecology of the reef and the island. The fish life and corals were spectacular. I can highly recommend this tour.”

Gorge Rd, Nitmiluk NT 0852, Australia

“Beautiful and certainly worth taking 2 boat tours thru connected gorge as it becomes more narrow.”

Corroboree Billabong, Marrakai NT 0822, Australia

“Corroboree Billabong Wetland Cruises. We did the 1 day tour from Darwin. Fantastic experience. Easy pick up from our accommodation. Tour Guide Evan was an amazing wealth of knowledge and humorous anecdotes. Great insight into Darwin history and indigenous. Also has eagle eyes spotting so much wildlife on the cruise and got us up close and personal. This was a highlight of our Darwin trip. Finished up with an ice cold beer at Corroboree Park Pub. Must do when in Darwin, 5 stars. 6 stars for Evan, best, most entertaining tour guide we have had and we have been on many tours.”

34 Mews Rd, Fremantle WA 6160, Australia

“Great relaxing ride, cabin feels really secure, but not claustrophobic. Views are amazing and a really beautiful way to enjoy the sunset before walking the marina to lap up the twilight colours. A great short activity for kids and adults alike, I went by myself on this occasion and it was a really peaceful way to enjoy the Fremantle sunset”

Victoria Quay, B Shed, 26 Peter Hughes Dr, Fremantle WA 6160, Australia

“Well organised and clean ferry ride. We even saw some humpback whales on the journey to Rottnest Island. Highly recommend renting out bicycles and snorkel gear as well!”

31 Tasmans Arch Rd, Eaglehawk Neck TAS 7179, Australia

“Beautiful views , The arch has a good panorama, it is only 3 minutes from the parking lot, there is a 10-minute walk with good trails and beautiful scenery. you need to have a Tasman parks pass .”

1 Commercial Rd, Port Adelaide SA 5015, Australia

“Was a beautiful cruise, the scenery was fantastic. You can purchase a ticket which includes a meal. You can also buy drinks & snacks too. I did the 2hr lunch cruise, the day was superb too. I managed to see a few dolphins too, which was a bonus!”

Stony Creek Rd, Jervis Bay JBT 2540, Australia

“It is a great spot to take in amazing ocean views from the cliff tops and some local nautical history. Part of the drive is a dirt road but easily accessible for cars if you take it slow. The lighthouse is mostly ruins, but you will be …”

Peoples Shopping Village, 4 Robinson St, Coral Bay WA 6701, Australia

“The best experience of my trip, snorkelling with Grey Reef Sharks, Turtles, and Manta Rays - unbelievable. The team were knowledgeable and friendly and were attentive to my needs as I am not a confident swimmer and have never snorkelled before! Thank you so much Katie, Ellie, Joy and Dan”

1 Franklin Whrf, Hobart TAS 7000, Australia

“Nice little bit harbour, but the great thing about this place is all the nice dining place around here. There are several great places right at the dock where you can sit down to have some drinks and food. Weather in Tasmania can be rainy and cloudy but in that case many places have a nice fireplace which feels nice and cosy too. I recommend staying at the MACQ1 right at the dock and get a room with a view over the water/dock - you'll love it!”

Barrack Street Jetty, 3 Birdiya Dr, Perth WA 6000, Australia

“Booked and paid online, tickets arrived in my inbox pretty quickly. On the day, easy to get to the Pier via public transport system, on arrival, it was relaxed waiting for the boarding time which was well organised. I had booked the lunch cruise, the catering was outstanding and the crew very friendly and helpful. Definitely singing I would do again. Only improvement needed was the PA system, wasn't very clear although it was competing with the engine sounds.”

15 Field St, Huskisson NSW 2540, Australia

“Oh my goodness! Excellent experience in everyway on our whale watching cruise. We saw 4 whales, dolphins & a random seal. We were a family of 5. With kids 10 y.o; 3 y.o and 4 months. It was a very large boat with places to sit inside in the shade and two levels to sit on up top. Bring a hat for all! Also Recommended taking a baby carrier for little ones; so your hands are free to help you move around the boat. The staff are absolutely amazing. Kristy is a legend and so was our skipper of the day. All lovely people. Can even enjoy a beer on the boat.”

10 Sutton St, Vincentia NSW 2540, Australia

“Extremely great place You can find a heaven for bbq and swimming Beautiful place for family and couple One of famous 6 beaches at Jervis Bay Even bbq place is very tidy and clean, toilet, just next to the stove area. After having a yummy meal, you can enjoy a bush walking or Greenfield beach for swimming, snorkelling or surfing.”
