Bring your own drinks and relax while admiring an amazing sunset on the water. We depart from Horseshoe Bay, after a short safety breifing we will begin to spill island knowledge and pour complimentry drinks.
This is a sunset cruise but also always make it as fun as possible when possible. We also let you swim, we fish, let you off the boat to explore bays so fun for all the family.
We slowly steam past White Lady Bay, Balding Bay and end at Radical Bay where we will let you walk the secluded bay for 20 mins so you don’t have to do the walk there yourself. We will stop at all these beautiful bays with added history and stories and most likely shut the outboard infront of Orchard Rocks where we will find the most epic angle the watch the last of the days sunlight.
This sunset cruise also gives you the chance to troll some quality lures with the excitment of possibly catching fish and taking home a fillet. Catching fish and catching sight of these exclusive bays is just part of this very affordable and value for money tour recommended by all. Your also informed with island history, local knowledge and advise to further furfil your stay on Maggie and in whale season (june-august) a possibility to tick off your bucket list.

Drew did an excellent job of making the trip inclusive for everyone on board. He's a bit of a character 'in a good way' and clearly passionate about what he does. This island has so much to offer and Drew does a great job of introducing you to as much as possible throughout the day.
I'd highly recommend this trip to anyone of any age visiting the island.
Best wishes and kind regards,
Rob
The vibes on the tour were excellent, and it's so evident that Drew loves the island and loves his job, he was packed full of information about the history and ecology of the island. 10/10.
Less of an issue but worth noting is there weren’t snacks provided as per the description (water was provided).
We’ve done similar tours before with the kids (snorkelling and fishing separately) and think this one is probably better for just adults. Wouldn’t recommend it if you are going for fishing either.
It was the peak period so maybe he was tired from operating some many on his own, but overall it was pretty disappointing.
I had a magical experience with a turtle, saw amazing corals and fish and then a sting ray❤️
I also caught a great fish and got to let him back in the sea.
As I was in QLD by myself Drew made me feel comfortable and safe. He’s got a great sense of humour, very knowledgeable and a fantastic guide
Thanks Drew for such and incredible day and one I will never forget.
No sunset visible today, but Drew ensured we had a great time! The tunes were rockin!
Ps: BYO platter food and drinks, you’ll get time at a beach to sit/swim/eat.
We started off with some fishing using reels. After that, we snorkeled in a couple of stunning spots -- crystal-clear water, vibrant marine life, and truly peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect mix of fun, adventure and relaxation!
I loved the smaller group size -- just 8 of us -- this was by far our favorite tour!
He shared fascinating insights throughout the cruise and made sure everyone felt welcome and looked after. His enthusiasm was contagious, and it was obvious he really knew his stuff.
Drue was also very accommodating, going out of his way to make the experience enjoyable for everyone on board.
Highly recommend this tour—it’s a fantastic way to explore the region with someone who truly cares about it.
Did both the day and the sunset trips and both were really good, even though we did both they were still unique and fun experiences
Completely and utterly loved it
It was a very relaxed 4 hours full of fishing, snorkeling and stand up paddle boarding.
Everything we needed was provided - hand lines, bait, snorkel gear, wet suits, water and a little snack. Having a toilet on the boat was also great.
I would highly recommend a cruise on the water with them!
His knowledge of Magnetic Island was fantastic, the locations he took us to are simply stunning. The highlight for us was snorkelling at Florence Bay. We will definitely do one of Drew's tours next time we are on the island.
Highly recommended.
Our skipper was highly knowledgeable, passionate about the island and funny.
We swam with some amazing fish, had birds feed from boat, saw amazing rock formations and two of the most beautiful coves.
It was a small group which was amazing and we watched the sunset whilst our host provided champagne.
We would love to do it again with the possibility of seeing whales !
Thank you .. great experience for myself and family !!
So we booked this cruise because it was small and it ended up just being us four which was fantastic.
Our children loved that they got a fish . They were super excited for snorkeling which was great. They took to it like a fish out of water and got so excited when they saw some fish swimming under them.
Drue who ran the cruise had a wealth of knowledge, was super easy going and made sure we had a great times.
Our children fell asleep on the ferry home after such a big day.
Magnetic Island is a beautiful, easy going place.
I will be recommending these guys at any opportunity!
The captain was kind and friendly, he told us a lot about the island history and showed us great spots. The music was spot on matching the sunset vibes.
Would totally recommend the experience.
seen whales, could even hear them through the boat! 10/10
I was pretty disappointed that we didn't get to snorkel Florence Bay because commercial vessels aren't allowed in there on weekends. Signs for 'island time' refer to 5hr trips for $85, we paid 115 for 4hrs. I think this trip should have been 5hrs so we could spend more time snorkelling and enjoying the sights.
Thank You Drew - I might not have shown it but I did enjoy your cruise
8 people max so very personal experience was ensured.
Drue was fun informative and very accomodating.
Would highly recommend both the snorkelling and the sunset cruise.
Drue put together an amazing tour with plenty to see and do on the beautiful coastline of Magnetic Island. I loved the fact that it was a small group with personal service. Drue is extremely knowledgeable about all things Magnetic Island and provided a fun, funny and interesting tour of the coastline featuring fish, birds, turtles, amazing scenery and more. Water and snacks also provided! I even flew my drone :)
Do yourself a favour and book the trip. Well worth it!
All in all, we can say - if you want a unique experience, in a small group with your individual changes to your plan on the way and the most stunning view on magnetic island - book with Drue!
Highly recommend going out for the day, will definitely do it again.
Thanks for a great time Drue
Well well beyond our expectations.
we got to see some special spots and some secret tricks that i wont spoil.
To top it all off, we dropped a line and trawled a bit and caught a fish!!!
INCREDIBLE
Amazing. great trip Drew. Kids loved it too.
