About this tour
Set sail on a themed pirate vessel for 90 minutes of estuary exploration in Mandurah. The cruise departs from Eastern Foreshore, winds through the marina past moored boats and Dolphin Quay, then navigates the residential canals before heading into open water to catch the sunset. You'll bring your own drinks and snacks—up to four per person—and watch the sky change colour over the water before returning to the starting jetty. Seasonal Saturday-evening departures run January through April, with departure times adjusted weekly for sunset.

What to expect
You'll board 15 minutes early and cast off from Eastern Foreshore. The first stretch takes you north past the moored superyachts and working vessels in the marina, then curves around Dolphin Quay before entering the narrow residential canals. Here you'll cruise slowly past multimillion-dollar waterfront properties before emerging into the wider estuary. As the light drops, you'll position yourself on deck to watch the sky shift from gold to pink to purple. The return journey retraces the route back to the jetty. The vessel has onboard facilities, and the atmosphere is relaxed—bring a mate, some nibbles, and a drink or two.
