A fantastic crew that made the day extra enjoyable! Sam and Kye were brilliant in keeping everyone calm as the ride was very rough, they were super caring with bringing my 8 year old their own water proof jackets, as she had to move to the back of the boat to help her vomiting from sea sickness. The Bbq was incredible so much food so many options and all fresh and cooked to perfection. Would highly reccomended these guys if you are after a fantastic day over to Whitehaven beach.

The best cruise meal ever. They offered grilled steak. The cruise included two hikes too. One of them is Hill Inlet lookout. That’s amazing view. The most beautiful place in Australia.

This was an excellent visit to Hill Inlet and White Haven Beach. The crew, Dan, Sam and Kai were very attentive and helpful. We very much enjoyed the bush walk to the Hill Inlet lookout. We had plenty of time and we were not rushed. The swimming at White Haven Beach was great and the fact they provided stinger suits was a bonus. The BBQ feast they prepared was excellent quality and quantity. It was a bit of a rough return journey but the crew made sure everyone was safe and kept everyone calm by pointing out interesting things along the way. Overall we were very pleased with the excursion and very impressed by the crew.

Family run business. Dan, Kye and Sam were super friendly, always making sure we were alright and well fed. The lunch was such a good surprise- juicy steaks, sausages, fresh fruit and salad, also included a really decent morning tea and afternoon tea. The itinerary itself was perfect too, taking us to the spots before it became too crowded. Boat seating is also very comfy

Clean boat, friendly staff, beautiful sights & yummy food. I would choose this excursion again. Things I didn’t expect- if high tide, you will NOT see the infamous sandbar swirl in hill inlet at all. The bush walk at WHITEHAVEN BEACH has over 525 stairs to the top. They say that it is “steep” but they leave out a stair count. The wind was over 20 knots and the boat rocked a lot. I thought it might capsize at one point but it didn’t. I was worried but the staff wasn’t. :)

If you want to take it easy and prefer to travel in a small group, then this is the place for you. The crew is awesome, it's a family-run business, and everything is very personal, so you don't feel like you're on a typical “tourist trip.” The entire tour lasts 8 hours and includes two stops and a barbecue with delicious meat, freshly caught fish, and fruit at Whitehaven Beach (3 hours in total). There are free snacks and very inexpensive cold drinks on the boat. We highly recommend it—it's just great. Thanks to the team for a wonderful day. 🥰 Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
