What our guests had to say.

We loved our stay on indigo. It’s the first time we have done anything like this and we absolutely loved it, already looking at the calendar to find time to do it again.

Thanks Scott

We spent two nights in Cattitude with skipper Scott. What an experience! We are from “sunny” Scotland and to experience the Fraser Coast summer in spectacular ocean background was a great treat. Scott was a knowledgable and friendly skipper. He took us to beautiful places and helped us to indulge in snorkelling and swimming. We have no hesitation in recommending FIBC and Scott to all our friends.

Hired Cattitude for 3 nights for my 40th birthday and it was a dream holiday! Scott was very accommodating in helping us learn all the ins and outs about the vessel also letting us know when and where to go around Fraser island, Big Woody island and arch cliffs on Fraser … which was our favourite spot ! We even saw a whale up close. Would totally recommend this Catamaran and this company to book your next sailing adventure.

Fantastic day on The Great Sandy Straits with friends. Skipper was very friendly and knew the waters in the area well. Swimming around Pelican Banks was by far an experience never to forget.

Excellent communication, very professional, knowledgeable & friendly! Indigo (the catamaran) was clean, spacious and comfortably catered for our party of 10 (including two toddlers). Can not recommend Scott enough and already planning our next adventure with Fraser Island Boat Charters.
