Cruise along the Richmond River to explore the natural beauty and tranquil waters of Ballina Island on a 2-hour tour. Sit back, relax and enjoy some tasty refreshments as your expert guide provides live commentary. Look out for local wildlife, such as our resident pod of dolphins and rare birds. Explore the mangrove forests and creeks that branch off the river. Relax on the water as you look out for the rich flora and fauna. Bask in the glorious evening sun as you enjoy a cold drink, tasty refreshments, and learn some local history from your marine biologist guide. Sit back as the boat winds its way down the beautiful river to where it meets the sea. Our River Cruises are the perfect combination of leisure with a hint of fast-paced excitement. Let us show you the sights, sounds, and wildlife that you cannot see from the shore. Our tours go through the mangrove forests, down the creeks, showcasing the richly diverse flora and fauna unique to this region along the way. Head to Mobb's Bay and cruise around Pimlico Island before heading back to shore. Learn about wildlife, local points of interest & history of the area from our Marine Biologist guide. Many rare birds and sea creatures such as dolphins can be spotted along the river, and for real nature lovers, it can be quite a thrill to see these animals in real life and up close. Beautiful sunset views are a treat from the boat, and for photography lovers, this makes for the prime opportunity to get some rare, beautiful shots to bring back with you. Our trips cater to groups large and small and are perfect for children and adults. Whether you and a loved one are looking for an intimate evening out on the river, or you want to teach your kids more about Australian wildlife, our tours can cater to your group’s specific needs. Relaxing, exciting, and informative, our cruises will let you experience the natural landscape and the river like never before. 2 complimentary cold beverages and locally made sweet & savoury delights.

Boring. Little information about nature, animals, birds and life in and along the river. It was just a boring 2 hour boat trip. The sunset was nice and the service on board was good. Expensive. Not worth the money.

We had a terrific experience. Even though there was a storm brewing, Marian told us all about the bird life and served us champagne and Chardonnay and muffins. We enjoyed being rained on because it was cool!
