5.00What an outstanding day! From the moment we boarded and were handed a pink gin cocktail, through pulling up huge lobsters, to a white table cloth lunch of octopus, barramundi and the freshest lobster you could possibly imagine - 5 star all the way. Excellent wines accompanied each course. The crew made this so enjoyable. Full of enthusiasm and encouragement particularly for those volunteering to pull up the lobster pots, nothing was a problem for them. Such a joy to feel so welcome! Several guests took to the water complete with cocktails. All enjoyed it Do yourself a favour and sign up for this cruise - you certainly won’t regret it!
Awesome

5.00Second time we have done this tour, cannot recommend it highly enough. Pulled the pots, caught some crays, saw a whale, saw the sharks, one shark swam with our hat on its head (after it blew in the water, retrieved in one piece by the crew, true story). Food five star, drinks excellent, crew fantastic. Best value for money we've had in years.
Great food, people and atmosphere

5.00We had an excellent day on board the boat. All of the staff were great and very friendly. The service and the food were exceptional. A big shout out to T as she made the day with her bubbly personally and outstanding knowledge regarding the crayfish. We would highly recommend this cruise to people of all ages. Thank you again for the great day to everyone on board, including the crew and passengers.
What a Great Day Out!

5.00It's difficult to say enough good things about this cruise. We had a fantastic day out. The crew were friendly, fun, obliging and went out of their way to ensure all their guests had a great day. The boat is very comfortable and the food was excellent as were the drinks. The welcome cocktail was especially delicious. Fresh crays straight out of the ocean for lunch - it doesn't get much better than that. All in all I absolutely loved this trip.
A Must Do on Rotto
