Bill's Boat Hire

25/09/2026

Second week of the holidays already. They go fast.

There's still plenty of days left to grab one on the water. Fire up the BBQ on a pontoon boat with the whole crew, or keep it simple with a kayak or paddle board. No boat licence required.

Don't let the break slip past without one.

Book online or call 0408 102 100.

Fun Fact! Here's what to keep an eye out for on the Passage these holidays.

Shorebirds resting on the sandbars at low tide, some fresh in from as far as Siberia. Soldier crabs marching across the mudflats in their hundreds. Brahminy kites and white-bellied sea eagles patrolling overhead.

A proper spotter's checklist for the kids, right on our doorstep.

Best seats in the house are out on the water itself.

The first morning of the holidays.

No alarm. No lunchboxes. No rush out the door.

Just a stretch of open time with nowhere to be. Imagine spending it out on the Passage instead of on the couch. Drifting in a kayak, landing on the beach, fishing line in the water, nobody checking the clock.
That kind of morning doesn't come around often. Make it count.

Some of the families on our boats today were once the kids on our boats, years ago.

They grew up, moved away, came back with kids of their own. Same pontoon boats. Same stretch of water. Same feeling of getting away from it all.

Seventy years in, that's the part that means the most. Not the boats. The generations who keep coming back to them.

Fun Fact!

The shorebirds are back on the Passage.

Eastern curlews and other migratory shorebirds have just flown in from as far as Siberia and Alaska, some covering thousands of kilometres, to spend the warmer months right here.

Look for them on the sandbars and mudflats at low tide, resting and feeding after that huge journey.
Out of everywhere they could land, they choose this stretch of water.

You don't need a whole day free to get out on the water.

A boat day doesn't have to eat into the holidays. Our BBQ Pontoon Boats hire from just 2 hours. Kayaks and paddle boards from 1 hour.
Slot it into a morning. An afternoon. The gap between everything else on the list.
However much time you've got, that's enough.
Book online or call 0408 102 100. No boat licence required.
