Our meeting point is down at the marina in Wollongong Harbour where our vessels, “Aquilla” and “Reel Force”, are berthed. To locate our vessels, please follow the Google map in this link.

Please arrive 5-10 minutes prior to your scheduled departure to allow time for boarding.

For Per Person bookings: We will allow a grace period of 10 minutes from the departure time for late arrivals. Beyond that, the boat will leave regardless. There will strictly be no refunds or reschedules for late arrivals or no shows.

For Whole Boat bookings: Departure time is flexible, but the return time is fixed according to your booking. There will strictly be no refunds or reschedules for late arrivals or no shows.

Free all-day street parking is available alongside the marina, located just below Endeavour Dr, as pictured above.

There is also free all-day parking available near Flagstaff Point (Wollongong Head) Lighthouse, which is a 5-min walk to the vessels.
