Explore the naturally beautiful Brunswick River on our multi-award winning Morning or Sunset Cruise. Great way for friends to gather and spend some quality time together. We discovered so much about our natural environment and the importance of marine ecosystems. I would highly recommend a visit and 2 hour tour.
The morning tea top notch, information informative, boat clean and an easy ride. Five stars - a well worth trip and will do it again. We would like to acknowledge the Arakwal people of the Bundjalung Nation who are the Traditional Custodians of this land which we live, work, and stand on. Arakwal people retain a strong connection to Country; actively caring for flora and fauna and land and waters.

I really enjoyed the sunset river cruise - the team were very friendly and informative and we managed a kingfisher and spoonbill sighting. The taste of the local gin as the sunset was lovely and the afternoon platter was delish and also thoughtful to being healthy for children. My 5 & 6 year old enjoyed the trip and the platter and best of all gave me peace and quiet to enjoy the cruise... great job guys!

Dad loved the relaxing cruise we gave him for his birthday and I think Mum might have loved it even more. We were treated to sightings of majestic white-bellied sea-eagles, a curious brahminy kite, bright and busy azure kingfishers, and top-deck views of abundant marine life beneath the surface of the crystal clear Brunswick River. Thank you Simon and Rob for your attentive personal service, your sparkling commentary, and your excellent boatmanship. Talk about future visits has already begun.

First up, the staff on the tour were brilliant and made the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable! They were informative, thoughtful and accommodating.
We did the morning cruise and first went towards the ocean and saw lots of sea life, fish and rays.
The cruise up the river was serene and we saw lots of bird life and learned a lot about the local environment, wildlife and history.
Morning tea was lovely and coffee (local new) was great. I would recommend this tour!

I’ve wanted to do the river cruise for some time and finally got to enjoy it today in delightful sunshine. Great to learn so much about Brunswick Heads, the Brunswick River and lots of information about trees, birdlife, fish etc in the area in a friendly relaxed atmosphere with the absolute best yummy brownies EVER for morning tea. Our little well behaved dog was welcomed on board - a bonus when staying in a caravan park. Totally recommend this cruise to people of all ages.

My teenage daughter and I loved this cruise so much on the Brunswick River, I felt compelled to share our experience! The crew are so fun and knowledgeable, that even though I've lived in the area for almost 20 years, I learned so much whilst onboard! Delicious food and drinks, fantastic scenery, relaxing and fun, we totally recommend the awesome Sunset River Cruise to people of all ages!

A very pleasant way to start the day! Simon and Gavin were excellent hosts, making local coffee and serving up some delicious cakes. We took our ten month old baby and they were very accommodating and helpful, even supplying some toys. Brunswick river is very beautiful and the ecological commentary was great. We spotted a range of birdlife and plenty of fish. Highly recommended.

The cruise was a great learning adventure giving us great insight into the development of Byron Bay. It was great to learn about the volcanic eruptions that lead to fertile soil, the rainforests along the river banks and how the back fires were burnt to clear space and enrich the soil for farming. The bird species native to the region and Australia was also great to learn about.
Last but definitely not least, it was great to experience the beauty of mother nature. The beaches and their warm crystal clear waters and clean sand was amazing and why most people go to Byron Bay. However, it was great

We went on the morning cruise & were very happy. Although we are regulars to Brunswick Heads, the cruise offered a different aspect of this beautiful part of Australia. The staff are friendly & informative & willing to help with anything we needed or wanted. And the views of the different parts of the river are amazing. Picture perfect.
