3 hour cruise on Darwin harbour. We really enjoyed it. The staff were so friendly and their service exceptional. We were treated to a delicious 3 course meal which was served up in a timely manner. The scenery around the harbour looked great. Warm air breeze was so inviting. The whole experience was so much better than we could ever imagine it would be. We highly recommend this cruise. Unforgettable experience.

Very relaxed make sure you have a big brined hat or baseball cap to keep the sun out if your eyes perfect.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Gday Heather,
Thanks for a lovely review. We are glad you enjoyed a relaxed evening on the harbour. Great tip about bringing a big brimmed hat or a cap to keep the sun out of your eyes. Sunglasses and sunscreen help as well and we always have chilled water on hand. We hope to welcome you aboard again soon.

We had a lovely evening aboard the Cape Adieu. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was delicious. Sailing in the bay as the sun went down and the twinkly lights came on made for such a really memorable time. Thank you so much!

A fantastic dinner and cruise. Easy to board. Welcoming crew. Beautiful yacht. From start to finish we totally enjoyed the food. Excellent wine and drinks list. The four course menu was a taste sensation which displayed great Australian foods. And the cruise itself was exceptional- along the coast and into the sunset which was stunning. Highly recommended.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thanks so much Jean. We are so glad you enjoyed the entire evening from start to finish. The four course menu is a real celebration of Australian ingredients and it is wonderful to hear it landed just right. We will pass on your kind words to our crew and chefs.

What an amazing way to spend the night. Sailing on the Cape Adieu was so nice we didn't want it to end. The service from the staff was 5 star, so friendly and fun to chat with. The food was fantastic, the Barraumundi was cooked to perfection. To top it off the sunset was amazing. A must to do when visiting Darwin we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
