Shaolin Seafood Lunch Sail in Port Douglas

About this tour

Sail aboard the Shaolin, a traditional Chinese junk, for 90 minutes along Port Douglas waters while tucking into locally caught seafood. You'll crack into fresh prawns straight from the day's catch, paired with crusty bread and zingy accompaniments, plus two varieties of spring rolls featuring barramundi and crocodile. A cold drink tops it off. The combination of open water views and honest seafood makes this a straightforward lunch that doesn't pretend to be more than it is.

Highlights

• Ninety-minute voyage on heritage Chinese junk boat
• Wild-caught prawns peeled and eaten dockside
• Barramundi and crocodile spring rolls included
• Local catch sourced same-day from trawlers
• Cold beer or wine with lunch
• Port Douglas coastal scenery throughout sail

What to expect

You'll board the Shaolin and head out into Port Douglas waters. The crew serves everything casually—spring rolls first, then a generous box of prawns with bread, lemon wedges and sauce for dipping. Eat at your own pace while the boat moves. It's all fairly relaxed; expect salt spray, the gentle rock of the boat, and the straightforward pleasure of fresh seafood. The sail lasts the full hour and a half with no rushed schedule.
