New Year's Eve Cruise (Family Friendly)

Ring in the New Year whilst cruising the Mooloolah River on our beautiful vessel, Whale One. The vessel is a newly refurbished and comfortable 20 meter catamaran, with both undercover and open air seating on two levels. 

Check-in and boarding begins at 6:45pm and will return to dock at 9pm after the fireworks. Enjoy a complimentary house beer, wine or soft drink upon boarding and a selection of wraps served by our crew once the vessel is cruising through Mooloolah River. 

Complimentary wine offering is Leeuwin Siblings Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz (Margaret River, WA). Complimentary beer offering is Your Mates Lager. Complimentary soft drink includes coke, lemonade, fanta and non-alcoholic ginger beer. One of these options can be collected at the bar anytime after boarding the vessel. 

This is a family-friendly event.

THE VESSEL

When you arrive at The Wharf Mooloolaba, make your way into the Sunreef shop to check-in and collect your boarding pass, before boarding the iconic Whale One. Previously owned by Steve Irwin, this 2-story catamaran has been transformed into the Sunshine Coast’s largest and most comfortable cruising option. Whale One is the only 2 story vessel capable of taking up to 120 passengers in total comfort.

This spacious vessel is equipped with a fully licensed bar to ensure your thirst is quenched while you take in the views of the Sunshine Coast. The 360-degree range of vantage points around the vessel allows plenty of great photo opportunities. Throughout the cruise you are able to purchase a selection of food offerings including toasties, chips, nuts, chocolate and jerky.

Parking is available onsite at The Wharf Mooloolaba or at the Council two-storey car park on the corner of River Esplanade and the entrance to the Marina (opposite Hancock Lane) – but with limited car parks, it is advised to arrange a taxi or public transport. Depending on boat traffic on the river, our arrival time back into the Mooloolaba Wharf may be delayed.
