Batty Boat Valentine’s Cruise February 2024 - Has Ended

Bats often get a bad rap, but once people see how super-cute these flying mammals are up close, it is hard not to fall in love with them.

Come along to our Valentine's Batty Boat cruise on Sunday 11 February 2024 and learn all about Brisbane's local flying-fox species and the vital ecosystem services they provide as pollinators.

Enjoy a beverage or snack from the MV Mirimars onboard cafe as you soak up the serenity of the Brisbane River at sunset, listen to 'batty' commentary, meet an orphaned bat from Bat Conservation and Rescue Queensland volunteers and watch flying-foxes wheel out of their roosts and head out for a night's foraging around our city and surrounds.

This one-of-a-kind experience will delight young and old – and it makes a perfect gift for families or nature lovers in your life.

Boarding is at 4:45 pm for a 5:00 pm departure, returning at 7:30 pm.
