TG Ferry Service operates scenic ferry cruises and private charters across the Myall River, Port Stephens and surrounding waterways. Based on scheduled departures from Tea Gardens and Nelson Bay, the company runs a range of experiences including afternoon Arvos cruises, sunrise First Light & Flat White runs, sunset cruises, a two-hour History Cruise guided by local legend John “Stinker” Clarke, High Tea on the Myall River, and special event sailings such as New Year’s Eve.
The fleet includes the MV Wallamba, available for private charter for groups up to 25 guests; charters can be self-catered or arranged with catering options. Dinner cruises link ferry transfers with riverside dining — for example, cruise-and-dine trips to Mumms on the Myall and Restaurant 2317 feature docked meals paired to sunset ferry travel.
TG Ferry Service emphasizes local storytelling and wildlife viewing, with crew-led commentary on marine life, the lobster industry, Worimi cultural connections and coastal suburbs. Passengers can expect opportunities to see dolphins, seabirds and coastal scenery while onboard.
Cruises accommodate casual passengers bringing their own food and drinks on select sailings, while curated experiences provide complimentary beverages or grazing boards as indicated. The operator serves leisure visitors, private groups and visitors seeking guided history or dining-focused outings.
Safety and clear onboarding are provided through standard passenger procedures and crew guidance. TG Ferry Service combines regional knowledge, a varied schedule of 11 experiences, and private charter capacity to deliver accessible, scenic ferry travel and event-focused river cruises.
