About this tour
Glide across Sandy Straits as daylight fades over Hervey Bay on this unhurried 2-hour evening voyage. You'll chase the sunset with a glass of champagne in hand while local dolphins and seabirds emerge as the human traffic retreats. The water turns glassy, reflecting the last light, and the bay's shore lights gradually brighten—a quieter side of the marine park few travellers catch.
Highlights
- Watch for dolphins and seabirds at dusk in Marine Park
- Complimentary champagne as the sun descends
- Expert talk on local wildlife and bay history
- Sandy Straits reflected light at twilight
- Discount dining voucher for The Boat Club included

What to expect
You'll board in early evening and motor gently through calm water as the sky shifts through orange and pink hues. An onboard guide shares knowledge about the dolphins and birds drawn to the straits at dusk, and the history woven into Hervey Bay's landscape. Most of the tour is spent simply watching—the light change, the wildlife activity, the shoreline slowly illuminating. It's restorative rather than high-energy; bring a light jacket as the breeze picks up once the sun dips below the horizon.
Good to know
Under-18s need a legal guardian aboard. Public transport links exist nearby. Bring sunscreen and sunglasses for the first hour. The included dining voucher applies at The Boat Club when you present your boarding pass.
