Frequently Asked Questions

The tour includes all necessary fishing and crabbing gear, bait, and a seafood meal featuring freshly shucked oysters and the day's catch prepared on board.

The full tour typically lasts between four and five hours, allowing time for cruising, setting and retrieving crab pots, fishing, and the oyster farm visit.

Your guide will clean and cook the legal-sized crabs and fish you catch, which are then served as part of your meal, while undersized species are safely released.

The tour departs from a designated marina on the Tweed River in Tweed Heads, where guests can find nearby street parking or use local public transport routes.

No prior experience is necessary, as the crew provides full instruction on how to set crab pots, bait hooks, and safely handle the catch.

The vessels used for this river tour generally have flat decks and ramp access from the marina, but guests must contact the operator in advance to confirm specific wheelchair dimensions.

Mud crabbing is most productive during the warmer months from October to April, and tours are scheduled around optimal tidal movements to maximize the catch.

Guests should bring sun protection, a hat, sunglasses, a reusable water bottle, and a light windbreaker, as the river breeze can be cool even on sunny days.

If the captain deems the weather or river conditions unsafe, the tour will be rescheduled to an alternative date or a full refund will be issued.

You may take your legal-sized catch home in a provided cooler bag if you prefer, provided it complies with local recreational fishing bag limits.

Weekdays tend to be less crowded than weekends, offering a more relaxed and intimate experience on the river.

If short on time, prioritise the crab catching activity and fresh seafood tasting, as these are the highlight experiences of the tour.

The Tweety River is located in Australia and is the boundary river that separates New South Wales and Queensland. The Cuier River Basin is mainly composed of ancient huge extinct volcano craters, with abundant rainfall and rich nutrient-rich local volcanic soil. Because the basin is located at the junction of brackish and fresh water, the aquatic products are particularly rich, and mud crab hunting has become a very popular activity here.
