The Experience

The cruise runs 2 hours and departs The Wharf Mooloolaba every evening from Tuesday through Sunday. You board a heritage-listed vessel and head out onto the peaceful waterways, cruising the canals and moving toward the river mouth as the light begins to shift. The timing is built around the sunset itself — the boat is positioned so you watch the sun drop behind the coastline while the water around you turns gold.

Live acoustic music from local artists plays throughout the evening, and the soundtrack shifts with the light. You get an individual grazing box filled with fresh, locally sourced items: artisanal cheeses, seasonal fruit, nuts and crackers. The specialty cocktail menu features local spirits and native flavours, and a complimentary welcome drink is poured as soon as you step aboard. The licensed bar also stocks beers, wines and spirits if you want something else.

The cruise works for a date night, a group of friends, or a family outing. Infants and small children can travel in a pram or stroller. Public transportation options are nearby if you're not driving to The Wharf.
