Ferryman Cruises Bribie Island

• HomeThe PUMICESTONE PASSAGE MARINE PARK is recognised as one of the most important bird and marine habitats on the east coast of Australia, and is considered to be the smallest estaurine area in the world that has a permanent population of Dugong. Cruises aboard ‘The Ferryman’ gives you the chance of seeing Dugong, Dolphins, Turtle, Jabiru, Swans, Sea Eagles, Osprey, Kangaroos and Dingoes as well as many of the 360 different bird species – many of which migrate from the Northern Hemisphere to these shores each year. This marine park is on the CAMBA and JAMBA agreements and is a registered RAMSAR site.

About Ferryman Cruises

 

 

 

What We Do

Ferryman Cruises provide Eco cruises of the Pumicestone Passage Marine Park. Throughout our cruises commentary is provided that relates to the environmental significance of this amazing area, it's relationship to the catchment as well as the Aboriginal and European history and the scene as it is today. We are proud of our environmental stance and aim to be carbon neutral.

Every Thursday we run a 3 hour Devonshire Tea Cruise boarding at 9.15am for a 9.30am departure and the last Saturday of each month we do a wonderful 3hr Sunset Special cruise which is timed to suit the sunset on the day.  Simple nibble platters are provided and drinks can be purchased on board.  We are fully licensed.

Other cruises are scheduled each week depending on charter bookings and demand.

Our other public cruises such as the Kids Cruise, the 'Skids' Adventure Cruise, or morning tea, lunch, fireworks, or Canal Christmas Lights cruises are scheduled depending on demand and time of year.  Check our Cruise Schedule for all cruises currently on our books.  This is updated weekly as cruises are scheduled. 

We are mainly a charter boat business as opposed to a 'Tourism' cruise business (that relies on day visitors and can cruise everyday).   We rely on groups (10 or more) joining our cruises with seats then available for visitors to join us.  This ensures the cruise will go ahead. 

If there is a date and a cruise you would like to join, please let us know and if we have enough interest we can schedule this cruise and advise you.

We suggest a minimum of a 3 hour cruise to really experience and appreciate this amazing waterway.
