    Sailing on a catamaran seeing dolphins and other sea life on a great blue sky day was just great. Then to venture into inlets and lay traps before catching lunch was a whole lot of fun. Then the crab lunch was obviously fresh and delicious - They should sell the chilli sauce !!! I would definitely recommend this tour

    Was a great adventure. I didn't realise how infrequently it ran so we felt very lucky to be able to take part. We caught 7 keeper crabs on our trip and it was very fun to check the crab pots. The crab was very good and so fresh!

    A couple of days ago my family and I went on this tour. We enjoyed spending time out on the water, dropping mud crab pots, using the smaller boat to get around and check them. Food on the boat was good. We caught a few crabs too and were. Able to cook and eat them onboard. It was an enjoyable experience.
