Highly recommend Mooloolaba Canal Cruises. Great for all ages. Kids got to have a drive and ring the bell – very happy!
We loved the Mooloolaba Canal Cruise, perfect for the kids, sunset was beautiful, drink and nibbles were available on board, and the crew were so friendly and accommodating. My 5 year old especially thought it was the coolest thing to “drive” the boat. Would highly recommend.

What some of our customers say
A thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours on the water at sunset.
A thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours on the water at Sunset on one of the most beautiful waterways in Australia. The Crew are excellent in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. As a local I would recommend going out and supporting a local business and enjoying a nice start to a great night out around Mooloolaba Wharf. Be a tourist for the night and mingle with others.
Great crew members and very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the commentary and relaxed atmosphere. Would recommend for a casual afternoon activity.
Great family fun
