Highlights

Explore the mysteries of the Ships Graveyard and enjoy a glass on us on this
relaxing and informative 90-minute Twilight Cruise.


A Twilight Tour


Running from October- March this limited time tour is not to be missed. Sit
back, relax, and enjoy the views as the Port River takes on a twilight hue.
Your Skipper is also your guide and will share with you the local history,
famous ships and iconic locations you are cruising past.


The Ships Graveyard


See Port Adelaide’s completely unique Ships Graveyard like never before. These
beautiful semi-scuttled vessels take on a whole new hue in the twilight light.
Be amazed as you cruise past the giant wrecks, half-submerged in the hidden
backwaters of the Port River and learn their history.


A Rich Maritime History


The Port Adelaide River is steeped in a rich maritime history that you will
discover as you cruise along its length, seeing famous ships and locations.
Your cruise guide will point out interesting landmarks and vessels, and we
provide a PowerPoint display with additional information for the duration of
the cruise.


Relax With A Complimentary Drink


Add that extra special flare to your cruise with a complementary glass of
wine, beer or soft drink.
