Enjoyable Mud Crab Experience - A couple of days ago my family and I went on this tour. We enjoyed spending time out on the water, dropping mud crab pots, using the smaller boat to get around and check them. Food on the boat was good. We caught a few crabs too and were. Able to cook and eat them onboard. It was an enjoyable experience.

Lovely morning on the water! - Had a great morning out on the water with such a great crew who were so attentive and lovely. The catamaran is comfortable with plenty of seating options and shade. The mud crabbing was really fun, was so nice to explore the creek systems and get to pull the crabs up. Having them cooked fresh on board was super nice. Would recommend.

Who knew crabbing could be so much fun! - Jackson and his team were great hosts for our morning cruise across Roebuck bay to Crab Creek. Morning tea, with fresh fruit, cake and croissants en route. We went off in turns (6 to a trip) in the tinnie to put the crab pots out across the creek system, and then another jaunt to collect the haul. We caught 7 legal size/sex crabs which the crew then cooked up on board... great morning!

I’ll do it again next time I’m in Broome. - An amazing day, friendly crew and a great group of potential crabbers. I enjoyed putting in the pots, pulling the pots and the excitement of wondering if we had caught a crab. A total of 7 male muddies were placed in the big boiler and eaten with rice, fresh bread and if you wanted with a home made chilli sauce. Yummy!!!!!!!!

Top tour, top crew, top day. - An awesome tour from start to finish. Friendly, competent crew and a great vessel from which to see Roebuck Bay. Crabbing was fun and informative and we caught enough for a feed. Lunch was great and drinks were reasonably priced. Great way to spend some time on the water, see the area from a different perspective and relax and enjoy the fantastic weather. Thanks for a totally enjoyable trip.
