What To Expect
BBQ Buoys are much more than rental boats. On a Buoy, you spend valuable time with your partner, your family, your friends or with your colleagues. You experience Adelaide from a new perspective in a unique way no one else in South Australia will offer you and best of all you design your experience as public or private as you like. Just skipper the Buoy to your favorite spot, have a break, relax, chill and grill your barbecue or just bring some nibbles. Local soft- and alcoholic drinks are provided by the BBQ Buoys team which makes it even more convenient for you to enjoy your time in the City.
A cruise on a Buoy is a perfect surprise for a birthday, anniversary, a romantic getaway or sightseeing with your travel mate while visiting South Australia!
