On a Boat

Get on a boat and experience Melbourne's spectacular Yarra River with your crew. Skipper yourself or choose a skippered cruise, and you'll have a blast on Melbourne's waterways.

You don't need a boat licence to captain your own boat and explore the Yarra River under your own steam. Anyone can skipper these user-friendly electric boats. Boats are super easy to operate and can hold up to nine people.
