Lovely relaxing day. The crew were friendly and welcoming. We had tea and scones while admiring the scenery and listening to the commentary. Lunch at the Breakfast Creek was veey nice and we also sampled some beer before our trip back. A really enjoyable day

Fun facts

Michelle_K, Aug 2025

Boat ride through the Trinity Inlet was smooth and the skipper Jack was not only was he knowledgeable but he made the talk interesting with a laugh in between. Jack was happy to answer all our questions and would highly recommend an introduction to the mangroves and history of the boats Michelle and family from WA Busselton
