      Terrible business
      I can't believe these people run a business. Had our first booking cancelled because they decided they didn't have enough people booked (fine print said nothing about this), re organised all our accommodation and holidays and re booked. Received an email confirming the day before then when we turned up 7.30 in the morning we were told the tour was cancelled again! Extremely poor business ethics.

      Disappointing end to a fantastic adventure.
      We recently stay for 3 nights on The Sea Shack at the Abrolhos islands. Staff were very welcoming and made us all feel welcome from the moment we stepped of the plane. In true Batavia coast style the wind was up but living in the area we were aware of what the conditions could be like. Even with the weather not playing nice a vast array of sightseeing, snorkeling and fishing was offered, along with fantastic food and company. We did manage to get a couple of fishing trips in and prior to leaving we were assured by email that we could keep the fish we caught. On the day we left myself and another guest were asked if we would fillet the fish and that it would be divided up amongst the guests. Well that was not the case. We ended up with two fillets of fish each and a couple of Cray tails, with the rest of the fish going into the freezer on the boat.Very disappointing after catching 10 nice fish and being asked to also rig lines and help out on the boat. I had messaged family and friends while onboard saying that they need to do this charter. Knowing that some of these people wouldn't be as polite as myself not taking home the fish they caught I have since advised against doing the trip.

      Amazing Abrohlos adventures
      We have just returned from a 3 night trip with these guys. Had an amazing time with so much to do and see. Food was excellent and never ending. Being cealiac it is always a worry but Tori did an excellent job and I was completely fine. Letitia and Sharky worked incredibly hard on the boating trips and were always fun to be around. Having local wines and produce on board was a bonus. Would highly recommend. The Abrohlos is an amazing place.

      The Number 1 Day Trip from Geraldton!
      A fantastic day out. Very professional and friendly staff gave clear instructions and were great hosts. The range of activities on offer made for an action packed day with something for everyone. Great food for lunch and a healthy selection of beverages to enjoy at the bar.

      Exceeded our expectations
      We took a class group of 40 teenagers for a day with Abrolhos Adventures. From the first correspondence to arriving back at Geraldton port we experienced nothing but professional, friendly and caring service. The boat is very well appointed and comfortable. All snacks, meals supplied and a bar is open on return trip. Activities range from walks to paddle boards to snorkelling to tours in a smaller tender. Highly recommend. We will be back!

      Amazing Abroholos Adventures
      This is one of the best tours I have been on, and there has been quite a few. Exceptionally well managed, professional and friendly crew, led by Ashley. The vessel was very well maintained, the food is plentiful, and the tap beer is very cold... perfect after a day on the beach with a large number of activities well catered for. Nothing was too much trouble for the crew and all of the equipment was is perfect order. This was a highly enjoyable day, and a great was to see and experience the Abrolhos Islands. Highly recommended tour.

      Super experience!
      Thank you for a great day out ! The staff were so helpful and provided first class service. Others in town should get there customer service training from this operator. It was a little rough crossing but staff constantly checked on guests. The crystal clear waters were stunning and the Island pristine! Food served on board was great and nothing too much trouble!!

      Great value for money adventure
      If you cant get out of WA, then go for a look around WA and check out Abrolhos Islands. This is a great value you for money day trip. You get a beautiful cruise on the ferry to the island, paddle boarding, snorkelling, speed boat rides, 3 meals (morning tea, lunch and afternoon) and more. The staff are friendly and will take extra good care of you if you get boat sick and want you to have the best day. The boat even has a bar if you want a tipple on the way home.

      Faultless.....The Best!!!!!
      I have been looking for an ocean experience for my elderly dad who is also not very mobile. I found Abrolhos Adventures online and I cannot express how much I was impressed with the kind and considerate manner in which they cared for my dad! They helped him on and off the boat with no bother at all and shared lots of laughs with him. He LOVED it. They also sent us home with an esky full of crayfish!! I cannot fault this company and what they offer. I love the fact that they are looking out for the locals as well as the tourists. If you have visitors to town then this is the perfect experience to take them on.......at a great price too! We are now booked to take my dad on a Whale Watching experience! Can't wait to see that smile on his face again! Give them a try.....you Won't be disappointed!!!

      Pot pull
      The father in law & I joined the crew (Gavin & Carl) for a 1-2hr pull of the X-rays pots. Col (f.i.l) uses a walker to assist his mobility, and due to this, the guys suggested taking the boat to an easier ingress and egress point at a public jetty. We motored our to where the pots were, and laughed and carried on as one after another craypots were hauled aboard and divested of multiple (legal!) crays. After the see-sawing over the swell, and back at land sharing out the catch, the team at AA were very accommodating and showed us over the whale watching boat. With a coffee!! Needless to say, we are booked on that boat for Saturday.

      BEST DAY EVER!!
      A Geraldton MUST DO. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for my experience. Myself and my 2 kids (5 and 3) went over on this magnificent ferry for the day. It was absolutely incredible. The staff were knowledgable, friendly, approachable, caring and professional. The vessel is pristine, spacious, well decked out and comfortable. The kids had plenty of room to play on the way over and back. There was ample food, all provided. And a nice cold glass of bubbles on the way home was just perfect. The islands themselves was nothing short of paradise. Crystal clear water, beautiful snorkelling, amazing marine life (birds, dolphins, whales, seals and more) sandy beaches. Shade, chairs, SUPS, snorkels all provided for a fun, relaxing, easy day on the beach. Thank you Abrolhos adventures for an excellent school holiday family day out. We'll be back!!

    Worst trip I've been on!! The weather was horrible, yet the trip went ahead! So was expecting it still to be a good trip, as they did not cancelled it. Was meant to be a 3 day fishing charter. Ended up just being moored up the whole time. Fishing in the shallows from a tinnie when we were allowed to fish. The Tinnie had no safety equipment. What fish we did catch was used for dinner & we went home with nothing. Tried calling & emailing and get no response. Worst trip & so disappointing. Would not recommend abrolhos adventures.

    Hi Hayley, We would like to acknowledge that you felt disappointed in your trip, but we must stress to you that weather and fishing are both a fickle beast and you may find the wind is blowing, the sharks are stealing and the fish just aren’t playing the game… this is the fun and adventure of it all! I can see here you were contacted directly after an investigation into your charter, where you were offered another charter at a heavily discounted rate which you declined. As discussed with you via email, unfortunately the weather is an extremely important factor in our business & our skippers closely monitor the weather prior to each & every trip, however the forecast changes frequently & at times the weather can change on you, especially at the Abrolhos. With back to back bookings for the next few months our skippers made the decision to not cancel the charter as there are so many experiences and fishing options for all weather conditions at the Abrolhos (for instance shallow water Bald Chin groper and diving for cray fish). Our crew and the feedback from the other guests onboard at the time led us to believe that the Skipper did his best to provide a good experience of the Abrolhos though the weather hindered the deep water fishing. We hope you give the Abrolhos a second chance and look forward to you booking your next trip!
