  • 5Great experience!

    The food was incredible, staff were very friendly and accommodating. Only downside was the tables being a little too close together due to the amount of people on board. Overall it was amazing!

  • 3Better weather would make it more enjoyable

    The catamaran is as lovely and there was a huge choice of food buffet style. All food was marked for food allergies. A nice glass of bubbles on arrival and additional drinks were well priced. A small crowd of boy 22 people on the catamaran. The weather was overcast and raining. No sunset because of the weather and going up top was very wet and windy. Maybe later in the year when the days are longer would be better. Seemed like a lot of money for the experience.

  • 5A night to remember

    Had an absolutely amazing night with my partner. Beautiful sunset on a boat, great food (everything was delicious & my partner being gluten-free had a lot to choose from), great entertainment (live music from Phoebe Jacobs), great atmosphere, attentive & friendly staff, and an awesome environment (got to go all around the boat & get great views). Really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.

About Cairns & the Tropical North

Cairns is the gateway to Far North Queensland, with the Great Barrier Reef offshore, Daintree rainforest to the north and the Atherton Tablelands inland.

Cairns sits on Trinity Bay between the sea and a wall of forested ranges. The Esplanade has a public saltwater swimming lagoon and a long boardwalk beside mudflats where wading birds feed, and the Botanic Gardens hold tropical plants and a rainforest boardwalk. The city is the departure point for boats to the Great Barrier Reef, including the coral cay of Green Island and the rocky Fitzroy Island, and for flights over the reef.
