I highly recommend The spirit of the Coorong cruises they are not to be missed if visiting the area
The condition of the boat was excellent.
Best of all were our guides, Anika, Kirk and Uncle Lawrie.
They provided a very interesting history of indigenous and early European history of the Coorong.
The captain and crew were friendly and helpful, and full of local knowledge and history.
Enjoyed our lunch and afternoon tea, and the chance to have a nice glass of wine with it.
The trip ashore to walk across to the Southern Ocean was excellent. Do take advantage of the insect repellent on offer - mosquitoes were feral on that walk.
Highly recommend this trip.
The trip was both fun and informative.
We were very well looked after by the friendly crew
The staff were authentic local residents and passionate about their business and customer focus.
