Lots of great memories of Lake Macquarie, a lovely cruise, a luscious lunch, and wonderful walk through the bush. - This was the perfect vessel for getting us around many parts of Lake Macquarie - a very enjoyable smooth ride. We learnt a bit of history, fishing information, the geology of the area and Dom was able to answer all of the questions we had about the lake. The bush walk was a lovely time spent gaining another perspective and to see some very different varieties of gums growing around this area. To finish off we had an amazing picnic on the edge of the lake. Giving us time to completely relax. We enjoyed the whole experience, very relaxed, never felt rushed and Dom is such an easy going, knowledgeable, happy character.

11/10! Flexible, fun and learnt a lot! - 11/10 experience with CoastXP! I took a group of young people, Dom and Troy looked after us spectacularly. The boat was comfortable, fast, clean, and had unobstructed views. Dom and Troy shared local knowledge and a history of the area, including great fun facts. They took us for a bush walk in Wangi and were flexible to support the needs of our group perfectly. Would definitely use this organisation again and highly recommend!

A magic day! - Interesting, informative and vey enjoyable. Our Lake tour today with CoastXP gave us a great new perspective of our Lake - from the middle looking out, rather than the edges looking in. Lunch was yummy! The crew - Dom and Jane - were friendly and professional, especially with regard to safety. The boat was in excellent order - exceedingly well maintained and presented. We had a great time and definitely intend to take more tours with CoastXP.

Perfect experience - My friend and I did the LakeCruise and Nature walk at Lake Macquarie and it was terrific!! From the well equipped vessel, knowledge/ friendly guides, beatiful picnic and fantastic nature walk and great customer service, it was an unforgettable experience! The views from the lake are so unique and pretty it was all we were hoping for and more. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Lake Mac but also to any local. Thank you for a great day Coast XP! 😀

Fantastic experience would recommend to everyone - A fantastic way to see beautiful Lake Macquarie. Jane and Ally were very good and provided interesting facts about the lake coastline and fauna. The cruise around the Lake was relaxing and with the coastal walk showed the group lots of beautiful spots with lots of photo opportunities. The lunch included was delicious and we had plenty of time to relax and take in the beautiful lake views. I would recommend doing the CoastXP coastal cruise and nature walk for a unique way to discover the lovely coastline and walking trails of Lake Macquarie whether you are new or a local to the area.
