Carnac Island Boat Charters

Escape to Carnac - just 25 minutes from Fremantle

Close enough for an afternoon. Far enough to feel like you've gone somewhere.

Perfect for birthdays, hens celebrations, corporate functions, Christmas parties and private summer events.

Carnac Island - Right on Perth’s Doorstep 

Carnac Island is a Class A nature reserve just off the coast of Fremantle. The island and surrounding waters are known for their natural beauty and wildlife, including Australian sea lions, bottlenose dolphins and marine birds. It's a spectacular backdrop for the day and one of the reasons Carnac feels so removed from the city despite being only a short cruise from Fremantle. Access to the island itself is restricted to protect the reserve, with your Carnac experience enjoyed aboard Lady Grace and on the surrounding water.

Close to Fremantle. A world away from it. 

Sometimes the best functions are the ones that don't feel organised. Carnac Island gives you exactly that.

 Cruise out from Fremantle aboard Lady Grace, drop anchor off the island and settle in for an afternoon of good food, cold drinks, music and seriously good company. Stay aboard and enjoy the view, have lunch, turn up the playlist or cool off in the water if you feel like it. 

No function room. No crowded bar. No rushing everyone from one place to another.
Just your own private boat and a pretty spectacular piece of WA coastline.

 

Four hours. A full day. Or somewhere in between.

 You don't need to give up an entire day to escape to Carnac.

 With the island only around 25 minutes from Fremantle, charters are available from four hours upwards. Make it a long lunch. An afternoon birthday celebration. A corporate summer function. A hens party with a difference. Or stay longer and really settle in. Tell us your date and what you're planning. We'll help with the rest.

Your own private venue - off the coast of Fremantle. 

 Why book another function room when you can book the whole boat?

 With room for up to 50 guests, Lady Grace gives you your own private venue for the day — with the Indian Ocean outside and Carnac Island as the backdrop. There's plenty of space to eat, drink, mingle, listen to music and enjoy the afternoon without everyone being stuck around one table. 

It's relaxed. It's private. And it feels like you've escaped Perth without spending half the day getting there.

Birthdays are better on a boat. 

Milestone birthday?  Hens celebration? Family get-together? Corporate summer party? Christmas function?

 Or maybe nobody has a birthday and you just want a very good excuse to get everyone together. We're fine with that too. Bring your favourite people. Bring the playlist. Bring something cold to drink.  We'll bring Lady Grace.

Lunch is sorted. Drinks are cold.  

Good boat days revolve around good food and cold drinks. Catering can be arranged for your charter, or you're welcome to bring your own food. Want to keep things simple? Bring your BBQ food and we'll cook it for you. Lady Grace has a commercial BBQ onboard along with cooking utensils, serving equipment, plates, napkins and everything needed to get lunch on the table. Drinks are BYO, with large onboard iceboxes, glasses and plenty of ice ready to keep everything cold. Drink delivery can also be arranged before your charter.

Less organising. More enjoying.

 

You Set the course. We’ll handle the rest. 

Organising a group function shouldn't become a second job. Tell us your date, preferred time and approximate number of guests and we'll help get the rest sorted. Catering can be arranged. Drinks can be delivered. The ice is aboard. The BBQ is ready. The boat is sorted. So when the day arrives, all you need to do is step aboard, grab a drink and enjoy the ride.mNo booking runaround. No organising headaches. Just Fremantle to Carnac in around 25 minutes.

Lady Grace

70ft of summer done properly.

Lady Grace is a spacious 70-foot charter vessel designed for entertaining. With generous indoor and outdoor areas, there's plenty of room for your guests to spread out, sit back with a drink, enjoy lunch, mingle and make the most of the day. 

Want to get into the water? You can. Prefer to stay aboard with a drink and enjoy the view? Even better.

And because you're booking directly with the Lady Grace owners, you'll deal with people who know the boat, the local waters and how to make your charter easy from the first enquiry to the trip home..

CORPORATE & CHRISTMAS BOAT CHARTERS

 

Take the team somewhere a little more interesting than the usual function venue. A private Carnac Island charter gives you a relaxed setting for corporate functions, staff celebrations, client events and Christmas parties, without having to travel far from Perth.

Cruise from Fremantle, enjoy lunch and drinks aboard and spend the afternoon anchored against one of WA's most impressive coastal backdrops. And because Lady Grace is exclusively yours for the charter, the day can be as relaxed or as lively as your group wants it to be. December dates are popular, so early bookings are recommended.

  • "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."
