We head upstream along the Hasting river and make our way through the Broadwater canals as you enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the area. Plenty of wildlife can be seen on these trips and if you are lucky we may have an encounter with our friendly, local dolphins. Its a BYO, so you can enjoy your own drinks and nibbles as we play some evening music.

Our tour departs from the Port Jet Cruise Terminal in the CBD of Port Macquarie. Access via Short St. Please arrive no later than 15 minutes BEFORE your cruise departs.
Though we would love to go out on the water every day sometime mother natures doesn't play along, our passengers safety and comfort is our main priority, If the trip is cancelled, you will be transferred to the next suitable day, if we cancel due to conditions and you are unable to ride another day we will refund you.
A cancellation by the customer made less than 24 hours prior to departure incurs a 100% cancellation fee (no refund). A “no show” on the day also attracts 100% cancellation fee.
Port Jet Cruises reserves the right to change or cancel departure times due to bad weather and/or ocean conditions ,or passenger numbers.
Please make sure to read your confirmation and reminder emails/text messages, to confirm any departure time changes that may have occurred.
We try to do so with as much notice as possible , however sometimes conditions outside and on the bar can change quite quickly meaning in some cases unfortunately the call can only be made on the morning of the cruise.
Please note that the boat leaves at the time specified on your booking confirmation message the day before your cruise. If you miss the departure, there are no refunds.
If you require mediations, please ensure you have all that you need with you (e.g. asthmatics, heart disease, anaphylactic etc.).
If you have have recently visited hospital, or have a pre-existing medical condition, we would ask that you consult your GP prior to cruising.
