Such amazing food, and... - Such amazing food, and the staff were all very accomodating and friendly. They made every guest feel special and did extra for those celebrating. The live music was a touch on the loud side for dinner but overall amazing vibe and experience.

Relaxed evening - You can relax, no need to rush, ample and excellent food supply. Multi choice. Prawns fresh and tasty . Oysters are in their own shell and not from supermarket supply and put in a shell.

Good tour of the bay at sunset - Nice experience. Small and intimate boat. Friendly staff. Food was ok. Good variety, but not the seafood extravaganza as suggested in the ad.

Great dinner - Great food, great service , ship was fabulous. Directions to the dock could have been better. Also ask if others joining you do tables could be scheduled. We’re very accommodating once on ship

Amazing way to end the day - We booked this dinner cruise hoping to catch a gorgeous sunset. Unfortunately the weather didn’t go in our favour. Nonetheless, we had a terrific time aboard. We were promptly boarded onto the boat at 6pm sharp and welcomed with a cold beverage (alcoholic or non-alcoholic). We then took up position on the front of the deck whilst the boat cast away at 6:30pm. Shortly after that we were called to seat at our table as dinner was ready. The food was delicious and plentiful. You could go back for seconds and thirds, but make sure you keep room as dessert also follows. Staff were amazing and all in all we had a brilliant trip.

Air conditioner too bloody cold - The food (although quite a good choice) was cold..the calamari was like rubber..the prawns and oysters were the best and we tried a bit of nearly everything.

Food was cold and tasteless - The cruise itself was great BUT the food was NOT, it was cold and most of it tasteless. The dining room was very cold and even after asking them to turn the air conditioner off or down nothing happened. We were not the only one that felt the same about the food and the chilliness of the dining room. Would not recommend this trip.
