Experience the natural beauty of the Richmond River on a relaxed and scenic cruise through Ballina’s stunning waterways. Enjoy the chance to spot local wildlife including dolphins, sea eagles, pelicans, kingfishers, turtles, and a variety of native birdlife that thrive along the riverbanks and estuary.
Cruising at a gentle and comfortable pace, this experience is ideal for guests wanting an easy, enjoyable day on the water. Light refreshments are provided on board while you take in the views and peaceful surroundings.
Our accessible wildlife cruises are planned to be guided by knowledgeable Marine Biologist guides, creating a fun, educational, and relaxed experience while exploring the local river environment, birds, dolphins, and wildlife.
We are also currently taking enquiries for kids-specific cruises and tailored group experiences.
All staff involved in these cruises will hold relevant clearances including NDIS Worker Checks, Working With Children Checks (WWCC), along with other industry certifications and training where required.
We proudly welcome NDIS participants and offer inclusive, accessible experiences tailored to individual needs where possible. Support workers and carers travel free of charge, making it easier to enjoy a memorable outing with confidence and comfort.
Perfect for individuals, families, community groups, and visitors wanting to experience Ballina from the water.
