5Sooo relaxing
A perfect day on the water, three hours on a beautiful stretch of the river. The Tweed Marina is easy to access and has plenty of free parking. Efficient friendly organisation from booking to departure, plus informative but not intrusive commentary from our captain Eric. The lunch platters were excellent, tasty and generous, all locally sourced. A highlight was seeing three fine brahminy kites circle the boat for a snack of fresh fish. Good value for money.
5Excellent day out
Had a really great time on this cruise, the crew were very helpful and commentary about what we were seeing was excellent. There was a morning tea on departure, and the lunch was very nice with a range of local items. Prawns were really nice. If you want a pleasant day out this is where to go! Well done Tweed Eco Cruises.
5Great day out
Lovely lunch out for the husband’s birthday. Our 2nd trip on this boat. Great food and interesting to see the Tweed River. Loved the Captains documentary about the history of the Tweed district and seeing the wildlife. Very well looked after by all the staff. My husband got to take the Helm as a birthday gift!
5Great luncheon cruise

5Great cruise
Shout out to Tweed Eco Cruises who were fantastic. The trip was relaxed, informative with a well paced experience that featured morning tea and lunch which contained 100% local produce. Would thoroughly recommend to locals and tourists alike.
5Tweed at its best!
The tour was great, I would highly recommend it as a must do when holidaying at Tweed. We were so impressed with the lunch provided being sourced from local produce. Eric was an informative guide and all staff were lovely. Thanks for a trip down memory lane as a Tweed girl, it was very special!

About Tweed Heads
Tweed Heads is a coastal town on the New South Wales side of the Queensland border, running straight into Coolangatta and backed by the Tweed Valley.
Tweed Heads stands at the mouth of the Tweed River, the northernmost town on the New South Wales coast, and it runs straight into Coolangatta, so that the state border is a line on a map more than a break in the streets. Point Danger, the headland between the two, was named by Captain Cook in 1770 for the reefs offshore, and a lighthouse and a memorial stand there.
