About our Noosa BBQ Pontoon Hire

Do I need a boat licence or any boating experience?

You don’t need any boating experience or a boat license to hire a BBQ pontoon. The boats are easy to operate, and we will provide you with a safety briefing before you set off.

Boat driver must be 18+ years of age.

BBQ Pontoons are ideal for big and small groups

Perfect for Groups: Our BBQ pontoons are spacious and comfortable, making them ideal for family gatherings, celebrations, or a fun day out with friends. With seating for up to 12 people, everyone can enjoy the experience together.
Social BBQ Experience: Equipped with a gas BBQ, you can cook your meal while floating on the water. It’s like having a picnic, but on a boat!

What Noosa River has to offer

Scenic Cruising: The Noosa River is a picturesque, calm waterway perfect for a relaxed cruise. You can explore the river’s tranquil beauty, lush mangroves, and sandbars at your own pace.
Swim and Fish: Anchor at one of the many sandbanks or quiet spots along the river for a swim or to try some fishing. Our boats are equipped with fishing rods and bait can be purchased at the jetty if you want to cast a line.

Comfort and Safety

All Weather Comfort: BBQ pontoons come with shaded areas, comfortable seating, and large dining spaces, ensuring everyone is comfortable, even on a sunny day.
Safety First: The boats are equipped with life jackets and other necessary safety gear. The calm waters of the Noosa River make it a safe environment, especially for families with children.

Affordable Group Entertainment

Cost-Effective: When you divide the cost among a group, hiring a pontoon is a highly affordable way to spend a day on the water. You get the full experience of boating, BBQing, and exploring at a fraction of the cost per person.
All-In-One Activity: Instead of organising separate activities like dining and water sports, a BBQ pontoon allows you to combine them into one enjoyable and affordable package

Enjoy Flexibility and Freedom

Set Your Own Schedule: Unlike guided tours, a self-drive BBQ pontoon gives you complete control over your day. Stop wherever you like for a swim, a BBQ, or just to take in the scenery.
Tailored to Your Interests: Whether you want to cruise, fish, swim, or simply relax, a BBQ pontoon boat hire allows you to do it all on your terms.

Perfect for Special Occasions

Celebrate on the Water: A pontoon with a BBQ is ideal for celebrating birthdays, work parties, or other special events. Enjoy a unique and memorable experience with loved ones while surrounded by beautiful scenery.
Unique Experience: The combination of boating, barbecuing, and exploring the river creates a special outing you won’t forget.

Child and Pet Friendly

Family Fun: The stable, spacious design of BBQ pontoons makes them safe for children to move around, and we are dog friendly! Perfect for the whole family.

Food & Drinks are available at the Kiosk

Cold Drinks, Coffee, Ice Creams, Ice and bait are available for purchase from the Kiosk.

Our Kiosk is also open between 5.30am-12.30pm for coffee, pastries and healthy treats.

Jake led our tour and was absolutely fantastic - he was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We were fortunate to have perfect conditions and we loved every minute of it. Huge thanks to Jake and the team for such a memorable experience.

The highlight of our holiday! My daughter and I caught 16 fish, while Shane and Tessa handled everything from baiting hooks to untangling lines. Great value for seven hours, with whales spotted just 40 metres away as a bonus!

Tip: plan ahead for seasickness.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir hatten eine Jet Ski Tour gebucht. Da der Ozean viele Wellen hatte, wurde die Tour abgesagt. Wir konnten diese jedoch auf den nächsten Morgen verschieben. Leider konnte diese auch nicht stattfinden. Ohne Probleme wurde uns das Geld zurückerstattet, da wir unsere Tour nicht länger unterbrechen konnten.

Amazing jet ski adventure!
The jet ski ocean tour was an awesome way to kick off the morning! The 9am departure was perfect, and although heading through the bar was initially a bit intimidating, the expert guidance made it feel fun and exciting. Our 3 guides were amazing, with special mention to Billy “Bildgey,” who was incredible—his calm and friendly approach, paired with his wealth of experience, added so much to the adventure. The stunning ocean views and thrilling ride make this a must for anyone seeking excitement. I can’t recommend it highly enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Crew and Jet Ski Ocean Tour exceeded expectations!
I initially booked the 60-minute tour for the kids, thinking I’d sit back and let them enjoy the experience. Then I thought, why am I missing out on all the fun? Luckily, I was able to join at the last minute — and I’m so glad I did!
We saw two pods of dolphins, multiple whales breaching and fin-slapping from a safe and respectful distance. Then, on our way back in, a humpback whale surfaced for air within about 20 metres of our jet skis! It was an incredible experience and something I’ll never forget.
The crew were fantastic, keeping everyone safe but allowing freedom and fun to be had.
I would have been so disappointed if I hadn’t jumped on a ski myself. Don’t make the mistake I nearly did — book yourself in, not just the kids! 🐋🐬🤙
