Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

Luxury Six‑Seat BBQ and Canopy Fishing Craft

Jordan’s maintains a fleet of luxury BBQ boats and canopy fishing boats designed for small groups up to six; boats come equipped with provided life jackets, BBQ utensils and basic safety kit so you can focus on the water and the meal.

THE SCENERY

Water Views and Sunset Runs

The experience centers on gentle cruising with beautiful water views and the chance to run at sunset — a quiet, picture‑friendly way to spend 3 or 6 hours on the estuary.

THE GEAR

Onboard Provisions and On‑Site Rentals

Safety equipment, life jackets and sunscreen are provided; on arrival you can also buy bait, ice, cold drinks and ice cream, or hire fishing rods and tackle if you plan to fish from the boat.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

Choose a 3‑ or 6‑hour hire and step aboard a well‑maintained BBQ or canopy fishing boat for a low‑effort, social day on the water: glide past shoreline scenery, drop anchor for a BBQ or a spot of fishing, and aim to be out late enough to catch the estuary in the colors of sunset. Jordans’ staff prepare the craft and supply the essentials so the trip is about relaxation and the elements rather than logistics.
