The Original 1-Hour Mooloolaba Canal Cruise
Overview
Mooloolaba Canal Cruise has been operating for over 30 years, and a recent refurbishment has added a modern luxe feel to a much-loved piece of Mooloolaba history.
On departure we cruise past the Wharf complex and Marina towards Mooloolah Island which boasts some of Mooloolaba’s most desirable mansions and award winning homes.
We continue on past Minyama Island where you will hear all about its famous residents before entering the Kawana Canal system and learning the history of the canal development.
We'll also cruise past Steve Irwin's famous vessel Croc One!
It’s then out to the river heads where we turn the boat around to take in the breathtaking views of the coastline from Mooloolaba Beach right up to Noosa Heads, before we head back through the river where we pass the pilot boats, commercial fishing fleet and observe the wild Osprey Eagles’ nest among other things.
There is a fully licensed bar onboard offering both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages as well as snacks.
