Join this exclusive two hour Gold Coast lunch cruise departing from a convenient point in the heart of the Gold Coast that provides you with a delicious lunch with fresh local trawler prawns, takes you through the extensive Surfers Paradise canal system and then out onto the Southport Broadwater to soak in some beautiful views of the coast's skyline.

Sit back and enjoy your lunch, perhaps with a drink from the fully-licensed bar onboard, and soak in both the sunshine from the spacious deck as well as the informative commentary of the many surrounding highlights including the homes of the rich and famous.

We are up from Kempsey NSW and went on our lunch cruise at the Gold Coast with u guys on 1/9/23. Great food, great staff, and a wonderful boat, so what could go wrong? Had a wonderful time thank you to all 😊😊😊

It was so relaxing and awesome. The staff was absolutely wonderful, and the food was absolutely great as well as the cocktails lol. My husband and I had a marvellous time, thank you. We came up from the mid-north coast to go on the lunch cruise with u guys on 1/9/23 and it was magnificent 👌

Great Staff, lovely food, great views and great commentary.

Loved the cruise. The staff were amazing. Very friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing loved the king prawns! Having both the seating area downstairs for the initial part and then having the upstairs area to relax and enjoy the scenery in. Expert commentary from the captain as you make your way back to the dock, beautiful views seeing all the areas you might not normally see if you weren't on a boat! Would definitely recommend it!

It was a wonderful time spent with my family. The staff were very friendly. The vessel was very clean, the facilities were good and the food was fresh seafood and delicious.

It was a wonderful time spent with my family. We enjoyed fresh seafood, fruits and drinks. My family and I enjoyed sitting on the top deck after lunch in the sun and looking at the beautiful view. We enjoyed it for a few hours, my kids were very happy.

Beautiful day out on the river with a lovely buffet lunch.

Lovely fresh seafood lunch that the family went back for multiple times. The staff and service were friendly, welcoming and great. Beautiful relaxing cruise up and down the river. We had a beautiful couple of hours. Would definitely do it again and recommend it.

Booked this lunch buffet cruise for four people. It all went very smooth.

The staff was extremely friendly, clear and helpful. The vessel was very clean, tables set up was great, the bar served plenty of refreshments. The food was amazing and the cruise was a great experience. Especially for our two overseas family members. Would highly recommend this cruise.

A stunning day out on the water - great food, scenery and staff!

The lunch was phenomenal - definitely a plentiful amount and variety of food. There was even a lot of food left over for second helpings. I enjoyed sitting on the top deck after lunch in the sun and looking at the beautiful views. The staff were also very lovely.

Well organised, great crew who do a great job and the food is awesome.

After trying to find something to fault about this experience, I have failed. The tour is good, the food is good, the crew are good at their jobs, the vessel is comfortable and has a reasonably well stocked bar and the cocktails looked awesome. The option of open air or air conditioning at any time is good also.

Lunch Buffet River Cruise, 2 hours of eating beautifully prepared buffet meal, including fresh king prawns, mussels, scallops, chicken, ham & a selection of fresh salads. The bar stocks a wide variety of drinks at bar prices. Great experience!

This experience was purchased by my wife for my birthday, we were really impressed with the quality of food and the staff were fantastic. We really enjoyed the relaxing vibe and the commentary from the captain. Would love to do this again in the near future.
