Had so much fun with Captain Grant and crew, Hannah and Gary. Boat was a 38’ sloop. Did just jib sail but had a fantastic time. Nice sparkling wine and good snacks. Fun sunset sail for sure.

Grant and Dee were fantastic hosts. The sunset cruise was perfect for a family. The sparkling wine and snacks were perfection. Dee took plenty of pics and then airdropped them to us. Great experience!

    This sunset sail was an absolutely beautiful experience from start to finish. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and accommodating and their puppy Winston was very sweet! The weather was perfect, and the sunset was truly stunning. The sailboat itself was very comfortable, with plenty of space to relax and move around with ease. We were each provided with a delicious snack plate and two glasses of wine, and having a speaker onboard really helped set a great atmosphere. To top it all off, we were lucky enough to spot dolphins in the harbour! Overall, it was a truly memorable evening and something I would love to do again. Thank you both for such a wonderful experience!

    We love it when families come onboard. Kids just love to pop the captains hats and have a go at steering. Thanks for choosing to create family memories with us.

    Great day for sailing.

    10/10 Would Recommend

    Was really good, very chill. Everyone was really nice. It didn’t have loads of people which means it was a very intimate party, just us and one other couple. 10/10 would recommend.

    Best Sunset and Full Moon with Sun Sailing .!!

    Sophi_N, Sep 2025
    One of our absolute favorite experiences on the Gold Coast! The Sun Sailing sunset cruise offered a wonderfully personal atmosphere, Cath and Grant were a fantastic hosts, which added a nice touch to the evening. This cruise stands out as one of the more sophisticated and unique experiences, far from the typical 'touristy' vibe. We highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing way to enjoy the evening of Sunset, we were so lucky with FULL MOON !!! Add up so perfectly. I will be back again.

    Awesome Sailboat Cruise

    Jody_G, Mar 2025
    One of our absolute favorite experiences on the Gold Coast! The sailboat sunset cruise offered a wonderfully personal atmosphere, set against the stunning backdrop of the coastline. The boat itself was beautiful, and the guides, Michelle and Grant, were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely made the experience even more special. We were treated to a lovely charcuterie board and drinks, which added a nice touch to the evening. This cruise stands out as one of the more sophisticated and unique experiences, far from the typical 'touristy' vibe. We highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing way to enjoy the sunset!

    Incredible experience, the guys were awesome settled us on the boat took us out a cursing speed. It was a special gift for my wifes Bday which they made extra special with a little Bday sign, the little details do matter. Ive never experienced a sunset on a boat which was wonderful, highly recommend for couples do have a romantic trip with a few drinks watching the sunset

    Wow. What a wonderful experience. Catherine and Grant are just the loveliest most welcoming people. A five star cruise as far as we’re concerned.

    Amazing Evening

    Jo_E, Sep 2023
    Thank you Grant & Catherine for a wonderful evening, seeing the sunset over the water and then to sail back with the skyline sparkling with lights! It was an awesome night!

    A lovely time

    Angelouise_D, Aug 2023
    Catherine and Grant were such lovely people. It’s my first time to the Gold Coast and this was such a memorable sailing ride. Their puppy is an added bonus and also works hard on the boat. If you’re looking for a relaxing afternoon before dinner, this is the spot for you!
