What if I am running late?

If you're running late, please let us know as soon as possible. However, as our trips are scheduled back-to-back and may have other guests booked, we’re unfortunately unable to delay the departure. We recommend arriving a little early to ensure you don’t miss out on your experience.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Safety is our top priority. If the weather is unfavourable, we may need to cancel the trip. We’ll monitor conditions closely and notify you as soon as possible if any changes are necessary.

Can I bring more than one person?

Due to the limited space and the fact that this is a free event, we kindly ask that you limit your booking to one additional person. This helps ensure that as many people as possible have the opportunity to enjoy the experience. Thank you for your understanding!

Will my wheelchair fit on the ramp to access the boat?

The access way is 750mm wide. We have currently had a variety of manual and electric wheelchairs on the ramps but best to check your measurements.
