What To Expect

Murchison River

Cruise along the Murchison on Kalbarri’s only river cruise with entertaining & informative commentary. Ideal for everyone wanting a quiet and relaxing nature-based tour. The lower reaches are home to a number of species of birdlife including Ospreys, Kites, Pelicans, Egrets, Australian Shell Ducks, Black Swans and our local White Breasted Sea Eagles. As well as Emus, Kangaroos and Goats are often seen on the riverbanks. The river at times can be 40mm deep with mullet jumping and small fish. The cruise comes to an end at the Murchison River Mouth, one of WA’s most treacherous. It’s impressive to watch the water move and boats navigate the channel. **Please note:** Minimum numbers are required for our cruises to depart, we will reach out to you if minimum numbers are not met for rescheduling or cancellation.

It is very pleasant and very knowledgeable . Grant and Tracey have a hospitable manner and present many interesting facts in a delightful commentary. Refreshments are available as part of the cruise. Despite the apprehension of an uncomfortable trip due to a strong breeze it was well handled.
Thoroughly enjoyable trip

We had a great trip. Grant and Tracy were really knowledgeable and interesting. Grants commentary was also very funny as well as informative. We saw lots of birds including Emus, as well as kangaroos and a fox on the shore. Well worth the cost of the ticket, which included a hot drink and biscuits. Perfect.
