Why not set aside a day and join the Spirit of Hervey Bay’s popular Mary River Cruise?
Step aboard the Spirit and depart Whale Bay Marina for your cruise up the mighty Mary River.
Enjoy morning tea while keeping a look out for dolphins, turtles & other marine life.
Cruise past Big Woody Island, the Picnic Islands & Kingfisher Bay Resort as you head down the Great Sandy Straits towards River Heads.
Once we pass through “the heads” where the mouth of the Mary River & Susan River meet, we begin our journey down the mighty Mary River. Keep an eye on our GPS/depth sounder in the upstairs lounge as our skipper follows the twists & turns in the river and tries to avoid any low spots as we traverse right through to Maryborough township.
Enjoy expert commentary on the history of Maryborough and the Mary River as historic homes & landmarks are pointed out along the way.
Capture unique photos along the way or maybe even catch a pic of an elusive Mary River Croc?
See Maryborough & the Mary River from another angle. This allows the “locals” to see what is in their own backyard. Have a look at some of the backyards of those beautiful old homes situated right on the river.
Once we reach Maryborough and turn around, a buffet lunch of cold meats, fresh salads & bread rolls is served on board whilst you relax and enjoy a leisurely cruise back to Hervey Bay. The Spirit of Hervey Bay is licensed, so why not enjoy a nice drink from our well-stocked bar while enjoying the scenery from one of our upper decks?
This is the only cruise offering trips up the Mary River and as it is subject to tide times & heights, we are only able to offer a limited number of cruises each year.
All this for such a low price. The Spirit of Hervey Bay's Mary River Cruise is great value and always books out fast.
Departs from the Whale Bay Marina, Buccaneer Drive, Urangan. Boarding time is 15 minutes prior to departure.
See you on board!
