Carnac Island Boat Charters

“A unique function on the water”

Spend a spectacular day on the water traveling out to beautiful Carnac Island onboard the 70ft ‘Lady Grace’. With this charter, our boat can be booked for 4 hours upwards so if you’re looking for a shorter day charter option, this is for you! Food catering can be included (BYO drinks) or you can BYO food (if you bring BBQ food, our crew will cook it complimentary for you).

Departing Fremantle from the Sardine Jetty, it only takes about 25 minutes to reach the secluded island of Carnac Island. You will be amazed at the abundant wildlife that this Class A nature reserve has. Check out the Australia Sea Lions, Bottlenose Dolphins and many marine birds such as the Fairy Tern and it is only 6 miles South west of Fremantle.

Carnac Island is a great boat charter option for a family group as you only need 4 hours to experience this amazing eco tour and it is a sheltered crossing from Fremantle (this charter is boat based as access to the island is restricted to maintain the beauty of the nature reserve). Inflatable toys, sup boards, kayaks and snorkelling equipment can be arranged, please request when booking your charter.

Lady Grace

Lady Grace is a superb, clean, huge, modern vessel which is actually bigger and better in person that in the photos. We love our Lady Grace and she is looked after with TLC. So please be rest assured that when you book your function with us that you are receiving the best service and the best charter boat in Perth and Fremantle.

  • Our charter company has been operating successfully for over 20 years. Safety is paramount on our vessel.

Our company operates under a AMSA Safety Management sys-tem, which our crew adhere to. Our vessel is inspected annually by Dept of transport and is in survey for 1B, 1C and 1D.

    At the start of each charter, our skipper will conduct a safety briefing.

  • On all charters the drinks are BYO but we have a great delivery service for your drinks. The best this is you only pay liquor store prices! When you make a booking with us, we will email you Liquor Barons Melville’s drinks price list, order with Liquor Barons 28 days before your event and they will deliver to the boat COLD drinks 15 minutes before departure. Our crew will meet them and unpack the drinks and load the ice and drinks into our onboard ice boxes. We recommend 50kg of ice for a 4 hour charter. You will need to pay Liquor Barons direct, but we can organise the delivery. Shooters and full bottles of spirits are not allowed, no drinking games etc.

    Our crew RSA trained and will be following RSA guidelines on all charters.

    We are a registered BYO vessel and as such when our clients are chartering our vessel for a private event such as birthday, anniversary, wedding, corporate staff party, hens party, staff Christmas party or

    any celebration where you are supplying alcohol complimentary and are NOT SELLING the alcohol to your guests, then these boat functions are EXEMPT from liquor licensing regulations regardless of

    the duration and number of guests. However, you will need to get a liquor licence if your company is supplying liquor to on board guests that are from another company, supplier or client which is then considered commercial gain and a licence is then required. its only a form to fill out and a small fee to the RGL. We can help if you have any queries.

    This information has come direct from the Racing and Gaming Department, so please feel free to call our office if you are still unsure.

  • We do not supply wait staff on all our charters, it depends on the catering menu that you have selected in order to receive complimentary wait staff.

    If you would like us to provide waitressing staff, to serve your food and drinks, please request when booking. $30.00 per waitress per hour will be charged.

    However, we do not believe that waitressing staff if necessary if you have chosen the BBQ menu or buffet style menus.

  • "Absolutely first class fishing charter! Owner/Skipper Matt, Skipper Jack and Chef Mark were the most obliging and professional people you could come across. Their tireless enthusiasm and continued effort throughout the 4 days is to be commended and it ensured that we had the best experience possible. The boat is huge, plenty of space for fishing, relaxing and having beautiful meals. Nothing was too much trouble for Matt and his team. Thank you for a great trip."

    Tony Martin

  • "What a cracker of a fishing trip, we jagged the superb weather again. And of course Matt did a sensational job of putting us on to great fishing grounds. Many thanks to the boys Cookie, and Gary. Great tucker and great service. Myself and the boys very impressed and intend to do the montes next year. 3 cheers for you guys."

    Jamie Kokot

  • "This was the best fishing charter we have ever been on and we have been on many. Matt is a great skipper and did his very best to put us on good ground all the time. It would have been easy for him to stay on the same spots for longer and relax, but if we were not catching fish straight away he would say lines up and we would move until we were catching fish. You gave us a trip to remember. Thanks again for an amazing experience."

    Phil

  • "We had a great trip with Apache. Matt is a great skipper and always did his best to put us on the fish. Gary and Rhett were fantastic and looked after us so well. The meals onboard were unbelievable. The boys were stoked with the fish they caught. I’ve included a couple of pic’s of the boys hold some great fish. Feel free to use them if you like. We are all keen to come back again, we’ll probably try out Shark Bay next time."

    Gary

  • "We had a brilliant time on your boat, our guests enjoyed it and we are still receiving great feedback. The staff were fantastic, the food was delicious and the donut was loads of fun! Thank you for making the whole process and the organising so easy, you go way beyond your duties and I appreciate everything you did to treat us to such an excellent day! We will not hesitate to recommend your charter to everyone."

    Renee

  • "What a great trip. Can't thank you enough for the fantastic time had by us all on our charter with you guys. We would like to book again for next year if that's ok. It may be a bit early for you to set dates but we would love to be there around the same time next year possibly a week earlier if that's possible. Let us know and we will get a deposit off to you. Thanks again for a professionally run charter by a great crew who are nice guys as well. We're stoked. See you at the kardy."

    Russ

  • "just wanted to let you know how much fun I and my friends and family had celebrating my 60th birthday on the Lady Grace on 16th March. Skipper Greg and crew were fantastic and made the evening go without a hitch... it just seemed so brief a time on such a balmy autumn evening. Also thanks to you for your courteous and prompt service in relation to my requests and requirements. All in all, I felt that I made just the perfect choice of company from which to hire a charter vessel."
