The Experience
Here’s how a hens party cruise unfolds:

1. Welcome and safety
Meet us at Marina Mirage. The crew will greet you, walk through a short safety briefing, and get everyone settled. With safety gear, two bathrooms, and private changing areas onboard, you’ll feel confident and comfortable from the start.

2. Settle in
Drinks go into the eskies, music connects to the Bluetooth sound system, and the party begins. Lounge in the shade, dance on the trampolines, or grab the bow for selfies with the skyline behind you.

3. Cruise and celebrate
We’ll sail through the Gold Coast Broadwater, past marinas, sandbanks, and city views. Keep the energy high with dancing or take it slow with cocktails and conversation. The catamaran’s twin hull keeps the ride steady and smooth.

4. Destination stop
Most hens groups choose Wave Break Island, calm, protected waters perfect for a swim or paddleboarding. If you’d like something quieter, we can head to South Stradbroke Island with sandy beaches and coves.

5. Sunset and send-off
As the sun dips, the Broadwater glows and the skyline lights up. It’s the moment for photos with champagne in hand and friends by your side. After 3, 4, or 5 hours, you’ll return to Marina Mirage with memories that last well beyond the wedding.
Your celebration matters to us.
Thanks to every hens group who has shared their experience. We read every review and use your feedback to keep refining how we host your day on the water.
This isn’t just a boat trip. It’s a private Gold Coast party boat experience made for photos, laughs, and moments you’ll talk about long after the wedding
