About this experience
What to expect
With a donut-shaped design, Mandurah Cruises’ uber-cool BBQ Boats provide the perfect setting for relaxed socialising. They are fitted with a circular picnic table and charcoal BBQ designed by famed international chef, Heston Blumenthal. Bring your own drinks and barbecue or picnic food, and eco-friendly tableware and cooking essentials are provided.
Being eco-inspired electric, they are fume-free and whisper quiet, respecting Mandurah’s precious marine world and wildlife.
While cruising, you may spot wild dolphins, swans, pelicans and local wildlife. Cruise past Mandurah’s thriving waterfront, glamorous yachts and through the canals. Share lunch with drinks along the way, or find a nice spot to anchor to take in panoramic views.
BBQ Boats are easy to drive and no skipper’s ticket is needed. Simply show valid photo ID and you will receive a briefing and safety instructions, plus a map for your scenic cruise.
There are two sizes to choose from – a 6-seater or 10-seater option. For larger groups, a fleet of 4 boats provides capacity for up to 32 passengers.
BBQ Boats are available to hire from central Mandurah every day during peak season. Bookings are essential.
