Cruise on a historical vessel
The beautiful Wagonga Princess
Over 120 years old, the historic Wagonga Princess offers regular 2 hour morning, 1.5 hour catered sunset cruises an hour before sunset. Also cater for larger discounted group bookings.
She is whisper quiet, propelled by an electric engine and her batteries are charged by the sun. Consequently this is Eco tourism at its finest.
There are many things to do around Narooma during your visit. In addition to taking a cruise, we have many water related activities such as surfing, snorkling, diving or simply taking a stroll along many of the regions stunning beaches. On the other hand you may want to try out the stunning Narooma Golf Course. Click the link below to find out more. Above all and most noteworthy is the Wagonga Inlet cruise. However, this is a biased opinion. 🙂
No longer operating! Do not book this cruise.
Please note, this cruise no longer operates. Found out today that the boat sank a couple of months ago and has not been operating. Looks like you can still purchase tickets online. Do not book this cruise.

Excellence
Whilst it was a little troublesome booking the actual cruise experience was excellent. Charlie our host could not have been better, very interesting as well as most amusing. The boat was perfect for the job.

Thanks for the lovely experience Dave
Stunning way to see a beautiful part of Australia, on a heritage boat hearing from Dave the Skipper about the environment, flora and fauna of the area. We saw White Bellied Sea Eagles and their nest, a little Hammerhead shark gliding past, swimming kangaroos, and an Aboriginal Midden tens of thousands of years old. All on a sustainable electric heritage ferry with nibbles.

Inlet cruise Narooma NSW.
We selected the 3 hour cruise option. 2 hour and sunset cruises are also available. The 118 year old boat is beautiful. David, our skipper and host was very skilful, knowledgeable, professional and friendly. Great fun and great value.

A lovely, casual, knowledgeable cruise. Thanks for a great cruise Dave.
It was a wonderful cruise. Dave was knowledgeable in local history. We saw some white bellied sea eagles, which was amazing. We visited an aboriginal midden and Dave explained about how they came to be. He explained and showed areas where previous settlements were etc.

Beautiful serene cruise
What an enjoyable and educational trip on the Wagonga Inlet with Dave at sunset! We saw sea eagles,Aboriginal maddens and historic sites as we ate fresh prawns and chatted with the guests. I would recommend this trip to anyone who visits Narooma. The Huon pine 117 year old boat powered by a quiet electrical motor was an added bonus. Thanks Dave and James.
We had a great relaxed cruise on the Wagonga Inlet on a well loved boat with an informative Captain about some of the history and current workings of the inlet.
Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour morning cruise on the Wagonga Princess. Learnt a lot about the history of the region and was a beautiful way to spend a couple of hours. Highly recommend
I have lived in the Eurobodalla region for 25 years...there are always new things to learn...Charlie has first hand knowledge of the inlet and his ferry..it was a journey of trivia and wildlife in a beautiful region of the world
Great afternoon exploring the inlet which is much larger than you think. Charlie is very very knowledgeable of the history of the area and oyster growing industry. Tells great jokes too. A definite must do from us.
