Brendon took us for a great ride in his jet boat getting close the rocks and the overhanging trees. Great fun. Access to the boat down a steep ramp was daunting but needed the help of a rope. Not suitable for those who find walking difficult. Brendon pointed out points of interest in between spinning the boat on its axis. Wonderful👍😁

It was absolutely amazing! Although i thought the booking was for 2 hours as that is what it stated it was in fact only an hour.

A must do!! Very experienced driver. Loved the 360 turns. Skimming on top of the water and seeing the fault lines was very cool
