What to expect
You'll board a catamaran and head out across Western Port Bay's sheltered waters. Once underway, live music plays while a guide provides commentary about the landmarks and wildlife you're passing—Churchill Island, Reef Island, Elizabeth Island, and the southern side of French Island. A complimentary grazing box arrives, and you can order drinks from the bar. Throughout the cruise, watch for Australian Fur Seals hauled out on rocks and various seabirds. As the sun lowers, the light shifts across the bay. The cruise wraps after roughly 1 hour 45 minutes, and you return to the departure point.

Good to know
This suits anyone after a relaxed evening on the water without strenuous activity—families with children, couples, older travellers. Infants must sit on an adult's lap; prams and strollers are welcome. Service animals allowed. Dress for the weather and water conditions; the bay is sheltered but wind and chill can pick up at sunset, especially in cooler months. Cruises are weather-dependent, so confirm with the operator on the day. The grazing box is included, but all drinks cost extra. No hotel pickup is provided; you'll need to arrange your own transport to the departure point.
