  This is a worthwhile activity to do. If you are visiting Gladstone in Queensland Australia You would be wise to take the Curtis Island harbour cruise for a view and very informative look at the developments, progress and expansive infrastructure which epitomises the local and global influences to world markets. Very interesting. All ages on this sightseeing cruise were amazed. But be warned, book early (months), wear a hat, and sunscreen and sunglasses. Bring a camera, lots of pics to take. There is tea and coffee and biscuits during the cruise. The vessel is a landing barge so don't expect luxury however it does provide a venue to a worthwhile experience. Value for money!
