Mooloolaba is home to some of Sunshine Coast’s best beaches and unique marine life – it’s no wonder that the best things to do here are on the water. A relaxing Mooloolaba cruise along the serene waterways gives you an excellent opportunity to see the Sunshine Coast with fresh eyes.
With many Mooloolaba river cruises operating along the Mooloolah River, choosing the one that suits you best is not easy. But fret not, because we have shortlisted the most unique experiences on these waters. From signature cultural tours showcasing the indigenous heritage of the region to seafood lunch experiences and sunset tours, you can easily find the must-do cruises here. These cruises will take you along intricate canal systems and past the region’s stunning sceneries.
On a Mooloolaba canal cruise, you can see the waterfront mansions along the Mooloolah River, the stunning bay of Mooloolaba, private boats and historic vessels and plenty more. When it comes to dining, expect nothing short of lip-smacking because after all, you’re on the Sunshine Coast. From bushtucker-inspired canapes and native-flavour-infused nibbles to succulent seafood options, you can enjoy some of the region’s finest food (depending on the experience).
