The Mighty Swan River is an alluring attraction for any gatherers to the Perth CBD of Western Australia, bringing locals and tourists alike to converge to the beautiful water’s edge and take in the majestic views of the river and the towering city in the background.

If things couldn’t get any better, now, there is another way to take in the Swan River’s sights and surrounds, and it comes courtesy of The Little Ferry Co. A luxury little ferry shuttle guides you around the Perth CBD area and drops you off for fine-dining dinner by the river.

You would be in paradise any more relaxed on the little Ferry Co. boat.

The Ferry Service offers a boutique experience along the Swan River, where small groups can mingle and socialise in the quiet tone of the solar-powered ferry.

Passengers can then disembark off the ferry at a couple of select locations and enjoy quality dining at various restaurants in Claisebrook or the accessible “On the Point” site, which is home to some of Perth’s most excellent restaurants.

The ferry itself is small in structure but big at heart. Entirely run on solar, the boat travels at approximately 4-5 knots and flows smoothly through the water without little fuss.

The Little Ferry occupies 13 passengers who can enjoy a quality ride. The only sounds come from the chatter of the passengers or the captain, giving a detailed narrative of the surrounding attractions.

Embark at Elizabeth Quay

Elizabeth Quay is the vibrant hub of Perth City with an array of city art, walking paths, kids’ festivities, cafés and restaurants. It is also the home for all significant Ferry shuttles and Cruises coming out of Perth.

The Little Ferry Co. shuttles are nestled on the Eastern side of the Quay, sitting below the Carlton Ritz Hotel. All you need to do is keep an eye out for the pretty little boats waiting for you to board off the jetty, situated near the V Burger Bar.

Therefore if you arrive a bit early, you can enjoy an excellent coffee in the Quay.

Dine-in Style in Claisebrook

The services run throughout the day and docks at three separate locations in the Perth area, being Elizabeth Quay, On the Point and Claisebrook. Upon disembarking, you can choose from several top-quality restaurants with riverfront views and enjoy a light lunch with the swan river in full view.

From there, the choice is entirely yours at what to do. You can dine in style as already mentioned, enjoy a few drinks, stop in at a  cafe for a coffee, and once complete, embark on the returning ferry without any added fees.

Sightseeing from the middle of the Swan River

With the ferry running at relatively low speeds, travel is easy to appreciate the magnificent scenery and attractions around you.

On one side, you are faced with the city views, towering apartments and luxury townhouses that most people can only dream of occupying. On the other side of the river, you are faced with the favourite Perth crown casino and hotels, gorgeous parklands and the new Optus Stadium, which opened in 2018 and has added a whole new class to the Western Australian City with AFL matches, sports events and concerts regularly played at the arena.

It would be a shame to leave your camera at home for this Little Ferry CO. cruise because so much sightseeing is taking place from the middle of the Swan.
