Cole and the team of ladies that we had were some of the best.
Couldn't have asked for a better experience pulling up pots and interacting with the crays and other sealife we found.
Food was and drinks were fantastic.
We will definitely be back for more.
Thanks again

The Luxe Seafood Cruise was a delightful experience, one that combined the best of both worlds: good food, drinks, and friendly staff.
The highlight of the cruise was the lobster catching, which was a fun and unique experience, followed by a relaxing stop at a quiet bay near Rottnest Island.
The individual portions of canapes and the continual topping up of drinks were also appreciated.
The staff onboard were incredibly friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere and making it feel like you had made friends for life. Overall, I would highly recommend Luxe Seafood Cruise for anyone looking for a fun, relaxing and memorable experience on the water.

Had a great day today with these guys! Boat was great! Crew were fantastic. Even though they were busy running the show, they always offered to top up drinks. We lifted some cray pots and the food we ate was off the charts! Highly recommend!

We've done the Seafood Cruise on 2 occasions and both times have been really enjoyable with great food. We look forward to doing it all again next year.

Exquisite food and unlimited drinks. Seafood lovers galore, good serving size of cooked to perfection crayfish. Very attentive staff especially when travelling with lil ones. This cruise is a must try and worth every single penny. The 7 course degustation menu is unbelievably filling.

Did the wild seafood tour and it was absolutely brilliant. Personal service, attention to detail and great vibes from the crew. Huge shout out to Ed, Sven and Scott for the effort. Food was an absolute 10/10, all local ingredients and Scott the chef clearly loves what he does and provides 5 star food. Couldn't recommend highly enough. It was also great value for the food provided

We have visited Rottnest Islands a couple of times before, with crystal clear water and stunningly beautiful beaches, it's a 'must do' when visiting Perth.

This time we decided to combine our visit with a 'Wild Seafood Experience' on Rottnest Cruises, which was amazing.

On arrival at the boat you are welcomed aboard by the ultra friendly crew with a chilled glass of Australian Champagne, wine or beer and shortly after setting off on the cruise, gorgeous canapés are also served.

This is, should you choose, a hands on opportunity to not only learn about Crayfish fishing but get involved in pulling up the pots and measuring the Crayfish to ensure they are big enough to be prepared for lunch, and the vast majority most certainly are!

If you're not so interested in the fishing side of the cruise you can sit back and take in the breathtaking beauty of Rottnest Island from the comfort of this luxurious boat while the team ensure your glass is never empty.

Lunch is served about an hour and a half into the cruise and this is exceptional, fresh oysters, beautiful salads with squid and enormous prawns, the most amazing fish tacos, my personal favourite and, of course, our freshly caught Crayfish. You receive a full half of a Crayfish, which has been beautifully barbecued by the amazingly talented onboard chef. There was a delicious choice of deserts to finish, which I couldn't manage. Throughout the meal a great choice of soft drinks, wine, beer and water was generously flowing.

After lunch, there was the opportunity to take a swim off the back of the boat as we continued to cruise around taking in the stunning views of the island.

I can't recommend Rottnest Cruises highly enough, this is a luxurious experience which is great value for money and easily the best thing we've done on our Australia trip.

Thank you to all of the exceptional team for making this such an enjoyable and memorable day - we will be back!

We arrived in Perth from the UK for the start of our Australia trip to be greeted by Myrianthe, the wonderfully charismatic lady who had personally organised our chosen Rottnest Cruise.
As it was the end of year, we decided to treat ourselves to a bit of luxury & chose a VIP experience. Little did we know the professional lengths Myrianthe would go to make sure all our requests were carefully considered & catered for, organising an adventure to Rottnest Island to beat all others & our own wildest expectations.
Rottnest Wild Seafood Experience offers passengers the ultimate in hospitality. An exhilarating chance to sail around the bays of the island, catching crayfish, taking in the incredible views of some of most breathtaking beaches whilst enjoying a beautifully chilled glass of wine before indulging in an exotic seafood banquet.
For those that don’t know & aren’t familiar, the spectacular views & colours of Rottnest rival those found in the most exotic of destinations. The aqua marine bays with the purest of white sandy beaches are picture perfection.
& so our experience began.
We chose to arrive at Rottnest by helicopter just to add that sense of occasion & to give ourselves a NewYear treat. All impeccably organised by Myrianthe with Rotivation Helicopters. Phenomenal! We’ve taken the ferry before, which is super efficient, but as we wanted to create a sense of occasion there can be no better or faster way to get to Rottnest which gives you the thrill of a lifetime. The views of the island as we approached were spectacular. & we squeaked more than once with excitement.
After a gentle stroll to the quayside we boarded the cruise ship & were immediately welcomed with a wonderful selection & display of wines beers & soft drinks.all included in the price & continually replenished throughout the cruise.
&, after the essential, but seriously entertaining, safety briefing we set sail & were cruising around the bay to our first crayfish catch. Hosted by Husband & wife duo Myrianthe & Peter & their charismatic on board team, Rottnest Wild Seafood Experience gives you the chance to experience Australian hospitality at its best.
Hauling up the days catch of crayfish baskets (pots) requires a fair deal of arm power, but for those who want to give it a go get the chance all under the excellent guidance & supervision of the onboard team, who’ll even assist with capturing the moment. For every moment of this cruise is a photo opportunity!
Of course, you get to eat what is caught.which means the crayfish & seafood can’t possibly get any fresher than this.
Lunch is then served with visually stunning platters of fresh seafood. Platter after platter of delicious dishes- oysters, shrimp, crab, calamari, fresh salads.one of my favourites being the fabulous fish tacos.
Then the crayfish catch is grilled to perfection with everyone getting a very generous serving.
The whole meal resembled a big Sicilian family gathering, everyone wildly excited, chatting & making new friends.
Post lunch, strawberries dipped in chocolate & glasses once again topped up, there was the opportunity to go for a dip in the sea with one of the giant inflatable lobsters-hilarious but I chose to stay on board clutching a beautifully chilled glass of local Sauvignon Blanc & utilised the time left taking in the breathtaking scenery & chatting to the other passengers. All on board agreed we were experiencing something very special & unique.
This experience was one of the best days not only of my trip to Australia but of 2018. The perfect way to celebrate the end of one year & to welcome in another. The perfect way to make every day a special occasion. Thank you Myrianthe & Peter, & your onboard team, for your kindness, generosity & for making our dreams become a reality.
