Welcome WOW Wilderness EcoAdventures to the Companion Card!

Step aboard with legendary guide Gary Muir and explore the breathtaking Walpole and Nornalup Inlets Marine Park. From fascinating local history to stunning natural scenery, every cruise is a unique mix of stories, wildlife, and unforgettable views.

Each cruise runs daily, from 10am to 12:30pm except during their annual closure from 21 July to 1 September each year.

The cruise includes morning tea and the option for a short wilderness walk. The walk does include stairs and uphill. Guests are welcome to stay at our jetty and enjoy morning tea rather than do the walk if it is not accessible.

They have a toilet on board which is accessible for those in a wheelchair however they ask for notice if there is a wheelchair user joining the cruise so that they can ensure safe access on and off the vessel from the jetties.

Their jetty for the EcoCruise is located just to the left of the main town jetty.
