This is an adventure. We talked to the locals that were on the ferry to go into town to do their shopping, very interesting. This is not a resort as such but the food was great, heaps of it and the back pool was refreshing.

$155.00 for a seafood buffet that ran out of Oysters and Prawns well before all guests got any food. Allegedly there were 2 Oysters and two Prawns each but half the guests got none. That is NOT a buffet. That is a pathetic serve.

disappointed. Just a pub crawl on water. Not really suited to familys. Im all for byo but this was just rediculous. Fine if a private function but not with familys. Crab claw is run down, no where to sit other than restaurant. Cruise was 2 hours too long and lunch was 2 hours too long.

Really enjoyed the day and looking forward to doing it again next dry season. You can take a small esky for a few drinks on the cruise home. There were also helicopters on the beach for quick joy flights.

2 hours over, 2 back for 3 hrs on land which is 2 hours too long. Ferry was ok, no issues there. Arrived at crab claw and had a beautiful seafood buffet lunch. Oysters, prawns, fish, steak all lovely. Island was a huge letdown, old, rundown, two backyard type swimming pools with no sun lounges. ...
2 hours over, 2 back for 3 hrs on land which is 2 hours too long. Ferry was ok, no issues there. Arrived at crab claw and had a beautiful seafood buffet lunch. Oysters, prawns, fish, steak all lovely. Island was a huge letdown, old, rundown, two backyard type swimming pools with no sun lounges. Reminds me I’ve a 4WD ice cream lunch stop. Obviously can’t swim out front in the water because of crocs so nothing there to do other than have lunch. Oh and if you are allergic to midgy’s than stay away- they are rampid there!!
