“Good morning, had a lovely evening yesterday sailing around Lake Macquarie. The staff are so friendly and professional and congratulation to the ‘newbie’ in the bar. You did a great job. Remember practice makes perfect; by the next cruise you do, you will be perfect. When we left the wharf the weather wasn’t looking the best, but even that relinquished its hold and we had a wonderful sky as the sun was setting. All up, crew, food, commentary, were all great. Would go again in a heartbeat. Thank you for making this Christmas present I gave my daughter, her partner and my husband a very memorable evening.”

“An amazing experience saw lots of whales, seals and dolphins. The crew were friendly and helpful keeping everyone informed where the whales were and then later pointing out the seals which were a little harder to spot. I would recommend Moonshadow Cruises for an unforgettable experience”

Moonshadow - TQC Cruises

I would 100% recommend Lake Macquarie Houseboats to anyone. We hired the 45-feet houseboat with nine of us in total onboard, and we had a great time. The boat was supplied with everything you need for a great four-day long weekend. It was plenty big enough for all of us. David and Leanne were super helpful and awesome. They provided us with all the information we needed.
