About

From the moment you are collected from your accommodation, you will begin to unwind and by the time you set foot aboard the MV Jabiru, you will be more than ready for an afternoon of cruising on Lake Kununurra. As the vessel winds its way through Lily Creek and out into the open water of Lake Kununurra, the picturesque lagoon will have you reaching for your camera. Views of Sleeping Buddha will be enjoyed from Lake Kununurra before we turn the boat towards the Diversion Dam as the sun sets. Appetisers will be provided and once we reach our sunset dinner location in Packsaddle Lagoon, you will be able to soak up the tranquility as you enjoy your Kimberley-inspired dinner. A complimentary drink will be provided on boarding the boat and additional drinks can be purchased from the licensed bar with a mix of spirits, beer, wine, champagne and soft drink available. Complimentary tea, coffee and water are also available. You will be dropped back to your accommodation after the MV Jabiru has docked at the Marina. The Lake Kununurra Sunset Dinner Cruise is the perfect way to end a day exploring the East Kimberley.
