Cruise the Mooloolaba Waterways with Heart and Purpose

Whether you're a local looking for a fresh perspective or a visitor seeking the best tours on the Sunshine Coast, Saltwater Eco Tours offers something truly special.

Sunset Cruises with Live Music: Golden Hour, Amplified

Our Sunset Cruise with Live Music is quickly becoming one of the most popular things to do in Mooloolaba - and for good reason. Guests are welcomed aboard just as the golden hour sets in, with soft acoustic music from talented local artists providing the perfect soundtrack to an evening on the water.

With a signature cocktail in hand and a gourmet grazing box filled with locally sourced ingredients, you’ll cruise along calm, sparkling waters while soaking in the views - and the vibes.

Authentic Bushtucker Cruise: Taste Country, Connect to Culture

For those seeking something deeper, our Bush Tucker Cruise offers a truly authentic Indigenous cultural experience. You’ll learn about the region’s rich Saltwater heritage while tasting native bush foods infused with modern culinary flair.

From lemon myrtle and wattleseed to freshly caught seafood and native-infused desserts, this cruise celebrates both the flavours and stories of Country -  an experience that’s as educational as it is delicious.

Why We’re the Sunshine Coast’s Best Cruise Experience

Winning the 2024 Sunshine Coast Business Award is an honour that reflects our team's passion for community, culture, and the environment. Our guests consistently tell us that our cruises offer a deeper connection to the land and sea than any standard sightseeing tour.
