EARLY RISER

2 HOURS 7.45AM TO 10AM

Our Early Riser gives you glimpse into Swan River boating as a first timer. Up river is a quiet, tranquil place with low speed and less boats, but more birdlife and residents and cute cafes on the foreshore. It’s like time almost stood still up this way

  • 2 HOUR FOR ONLY $207+BF IN AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER

PICNIC BOAT HIRE

2-4 HOURS FROM 10.15AM
August to June

The river comes alive after 10am.

If you would like to see Perth City on your journey then a 4 hour hire is for you. If you are new to boating we suggest starting with a 2 hour hire and then come back for a 4 hour.

FULLY CHARGED

6 HOURS 10.15AM TO 4.30PM
August to June

This is your chance to find hidden gems in the far upper reaches. Sail into wine country, stop at historical places from the settlement era or just take your time to explore.

Whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, a cherished anniversary, or even planning a picture-perfect proposal, our vessels provide the perfect ambiance.

Alternatively, if you seek a serene escape, embark on a tranquil date day where you can unwind, relish the calming presence of the water, and embark on an exploration of hidden gems and captivating wildlife. With a leisurely pace, reaching a maximum speed of 7km per hour (subject to weather conditions and payload), you’ll have ample time to immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring surroundings.

Remember, it is not merely about reaching a destination-it is about cherishing the company you keep and embracing the enchanting voyage itself. Join us as the river becomes your ultimate destination, and let the magic unfold before your very eyes.
