Step aboard your very own electric picnic boat and become the captain for a one-hour self-drive adventure along the Brisbane River. With you in control, you decide your pace. All necessary safety equipment is provided, along with a quick demonstration to ensure you feel confident and ready to steer. You’ll also receive a map of the operational area and guidance on the best route to take. Start in the Newstead district, head east or west, and discover Brisbane’s landmarks from a whole new perspective.

Designed for comfort and fun, each boat features a picnic table and ample space for up to eight passengers. Bring your favourite snacks and drinks on board - and don’t forget your furry friend, as our boats are pet-friendly! Quiet, modern, and eco-friendly, these boats let you enjoy the river without engine noise or fumes, giving you the perfect opportunity to relax and soak in the scenery.

Float past iconic sites such as the Brisbane Powerhouse, New Farm Park, the Woolstore buildings, and the WWII Submarine base. With so much to see and the freedom to go at your own pace, this adventure truly brings the dream of being a boat captain to life.
