OUR HISTORY
Lake Mac Watersports started in Lake Macquarie in December 2006 with one jet boat (Cheeky Bee). In the first six years, we saw plenty of smiles while we thrilled over 15,000 passengers. During this time, we added hire boats, kayaks, and stand-up paddle boards to our activities. We also added SUPs and kayaks to our shop sales.
In 2013, we moved our operation to our current location at Cams Wharf (Raffertys Resort) and expanded our hire fleet and sales. Our passion for this exciting business and Lake Macquarie pushed us to take the plunge in early 2014 to expand further by purchasing Wild Thing, our newest jet boat. This enabled us to offer even more exciting options for passengers as the new boat is surveyed for offshore operations and is purposely built for the ocean. This meant we were able to create the Ocean Extreme ride.
Our aim is to continue to grow and offer more activities and options for many years to come.
OUR POLICIES
Bookings
We recommend that you make a booking in advance as we get quite busy and often we are fully booked. We are not always open so this is another important reason to book in advance. You can easily book online here! You can still call on the day to book a boat and we may still have some available. If we have an advance booking we will open any day.
If you call and we don’t answer straight away, we are most likely busy with another customer. Leave a message and we will call you back asap. You can also send us an email enquiry.
Weather
Don’t worry about the weather! If you make a booking and the weather is awful on the day, we can reschedule, offer credit, or refund your booking. Make sure you check multiple weather sources or give us a call to get our industry experience and advice on the upcoming weather.
Fishing
We have rod hire and bait available. We also sell tackle and have a nice range of quality affordable fishing rod and reel combos. In case you forget, we have sunscreen, hats, etc. Each boat has a set of four fishing licences to the boat’s name, or you can buy your own personal licence online to fish anytime!
