          Sunset Cruise.
          A Magical experience to see the truely spectacular sunset from this lovely Catamaran.The canapes were a lovely touch and a nice variety.The crew were very professional but young and with a funky vibe.I would recommend this to the first time traveller to Broome wanting to see the sunset from the water.

          Sunset Cruise
          Hotel pick up was provided and arrived exactly on time. Although the sea wasn't calm, the crew were super friendly and met all our needs. Delicious canapes were served and a selection of drinks provided. The sunset was picture perfect.

          Amazing day 10/10 - would recommend!
          We had an amazing time with Broome Tours. Jono and the rest of the team were so great and we were really impressed with the food, drinks and general service on board! We saw whales, dolphins and turtles up close which was fantastic. We would definitely recommend the whale watching tour to anyone visiting Broome!! Thanks Broome Tours for a wonderful day out - see you again!

          Sunset Cruise
          It was a fun experience on the final day of our Kimberley trip following our camping adventure. The sunset cruise on the water was fantastic, and the excitement when we spotted some whales, adding to the exprience.

          We had a great time - very easy arranging the tour including our accommodation pick up. The Sunset Cruise Team could not be more friendly or obliging. Being on the water at sunset was amazing! Would recommend the tour for all ages.

          Amazing sunset cruise
          Can highly recommend this cruise - Jono, Tess, Maddie and Frenchie (sorry I forgot your name!) took such good care of all guests. The cocktails were delicious, the views and swims in the net were unforgettable. Our daughters were visiting us from the East Coast and we partook in the cruise to celebrate all of our 2024 birthdays. Thank you for giving our family such a memorable time on Balena.

          A great evening
          Well, not surprisingly in the middle of winter the water was a little cold Having said that swimming on the cargo nets at the back of the boat and drinking champagne was a lovely way to prepare for a beautiful sunset Great staff And a lovely afternoon Just be prepared to get a little bit wet on your way in and out from cable Beach

        Jackson and his team were great hosts for our morning cruise across Roebuck bay to Crab Creek. Morning tea, with fresh fruit, cake and croissants en route. We went off in turns (6 to a trip) in the tinnie to put the crab pots out across the creek system, and then another jaunt to collect the haul. We caught 7 legal size/sex crabs which the crew then cooked up on board... great morning!

        An awesome tour from start to finish. Friendly, competent crew and a great vessel from which to see Roebuck Bay. Crabbing was fun and informative and we caught enough for a feed. Lunch was great and drinks were reasonably priced. Great way to spend some time on the water, see the area from a different perspective and relax and enjoy the fantastic weather. Thanks for a totally enjoyable trip.

        Had and amazing morning mud crabbing with the guys and girls from Broome Tours. Nothing was left out. Hot drinks on arrival to dessert at the end. The actual mud crabbing was so much fun and we were all (8 of us) lucky enough to to catch catch a crab. Would highly recommend this cruise and this team 🦀🦀🦀🦀

        This was without doubt our best day out in WA so far on our 12 week trip.
        From the moment the lovely Kerry at the fantastic Broom Visitor Centre booked this for us we had an exceptional experience. Crew were great, the beautiful vessel, the abundant and delicious food, fun company and then the chase for the crabs. Once we had caught our crabs ( the little guys were a bit light on) it was time to relax in the sun with a cold beer ( or in my case a delicious espresso martini) while our crabs were prepared for lunch.
        Just a wonderful , all round enjoyable day.

        Wasn’t too sure what to expect but had an amazing time. Relaxing cruise to and from the mangroves. The guides and crew were awesome and so friendly. You do have to wade through shallow water to the tender so wear slip on shoes. Caught some massive mud crabs, 15 in all that fed us well!! Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for something different to do in Broome 😉

        Had a great morning out on the water with such a great crew who were so attentive and lovely. The catamaran is comfortable with plenty of seating options and shade. The mud crabbing was really fun, was so nice to explore the creek systems and get to pull the crabs up. Having them cooked fresh on board was super nice. Would recommend.
