  • Savour a generous cheese platter featuring local award-winning cheeses, perfectly complementing your BYO drinks on board.
  • Listen to captivating stories about Cook's passage and the Guugu Yimithir culture, enriching your understanding of the region.
  • Navigate through tranquil creeks at dusk, where spotlighting reveals the enchanting mangrove walls along the river.

Experience the Endeavour River at its most special time of day. Explore the harbour in the long afternoon light and then head upstream to watch the sunset over the distant ranges. While navigating the maze way of smaller creeks feast on a generous cheese platter featuring a selection of local award winning cheeses to accompany BYO drinks.

After dark, spotlights add a whole new perspective to the walls of mangrove that line the river. Listen to stories about Cook’s passage along the Cape, about the Guugu Yimithir and the meeting of cultures, about cyclones and pearling luggers and about the new Cooktown, the gateway to the Cape.

This boutique tour caters for groups up to 30 guests on an open sided safari style shallow draft river boat. With fixed bench seating removed the vessel is set more like a floating cafe with stand alone chairs and individual tables.

This sunset cruise can make for a wonderfully peaceful way to end the day.
