Off peak midweek special enjoy twice the length in cruise. Take in more scenic views and wildlife sightings as you sail through Mandurah’s waterways.

About the cruise

Looking for a more relaxed adventure on Mandurah's waterways? Our Midweek Magic Cruise offers just that! Available outside of school holidays, this off-peak 90-minute cruise lets you sail longer and enjoy more time to take in the beautiful sights of Mandurah.

All the fun of our regular pirate cruise is here, steer the ship, fire the water cannons, and enjoy the calm, scenic surroundings. The slower pace of this cruise allows you to fully appreciate the stunning views and local wildlife that call Mandurah home, from playful dolphins to pelicans and cormorants.

Perfect for those looking for a laid-back and immersive experience, the midweek cruise offers both savings and an extended opportunity to explore.

How to find us

We're at the jetty out the front of The Bay Cafe on the Eastern Foreshore, opposite 9 Mandurah Terrace, between the Kwillena Gabi estuary pool and the traffic bridge.

Boarding starts 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Please allow time to park and walk down: if you miss the cruise, tickets are forfeited.

Parking on the foreshore is in short supply most weekends, and traffic on the freeway can add to the trip, so it's worth leaving a bit earlier than you think you need to.

Missed the cruise?

If you miss the cruise we've held the seats for you and lost the opportunity to resell your tickets, which have now been forfeited. You can email us and we will consider availability to let you go on a future cruise, however please be aware that's unlikely to be the next cruise, and on busy weekends will need to be on a future date.

Getting aboard

A smooth sloped ramp runs down to the ship and there are no gangway steps to climb. All you step over is the lip of the deck, less than the height of a normal stair. Once aboard it’s a flat deck to the seating..

A wheelchair can't be pushed aboard, but once you're seated we can fold it and stow it for the cruise. Our accessibility page has the full detail. If anything there leaves you unsure, ask us before you book and we'll give you a straight answer.

    The crew are a knowledgeable bunch, with great dad Humor. Captain stopped when dolphins were spotted and encouraged the kids to wash the docks and fire the cannons (water) at passing boats.

    Great fun trip for a family especially with young children. Very interactive with canons, treasure, bell and more. Wonderful pirate captain and pirate mate jokes and commentary. Great value too.

    We had a lovely cruise. The "pirates" were really nice and they made it an unforgettable cruise. We saw about 15 dolphins so that was a big plus. Even if there aren't any, than we would still had a great time. So i really recommend this tour when in mandurah or close by.
