We made the journey from the states to visit Gold Coast. We decided to see what Sea World Cruises was all about and glad we did. We did the Jet Boat for some thrills and the Dinner Cruise with some amazing food and views.

A wonderful experience! From the moment we stepped onto the boat the Staff were all very welcoming and the service was excellent. There was a lovely variety of food, the commentary was very informative and entertaining.

I had the most magical night with my partner on the Sea World Cruise at Main Beach. Seeing the Gold Coast skyline lit up at night was absolutely breathtaking. The city lights reflecting on the water created such a romantic and peaceful atmosphere.
