Mud Crabs
Wooli is also famous for mud crabs, for those keen on this delicacy and enjoy the river ritual of crabbing and then the cook up in the kitchen, bring your tinny and pots and head up river.
Blue River Apartments has plenty of boat parking options in the river or you can leave it tied in the river close to the apartments for those early morning or late night trips to check your pots.
For those not so keen on the crabbing ritual, we can arrange the delivery of fresh crabs for you to enjoy. You do need to let us know well in advance, of your arrival, if this is of interest to you.
How to make Wooli Chilli Mudcrab
Starts with booking a holiday at Blue River Apartments
Gather the important person or people to share the experience
Confirm crab order
Pack your favourite crab accompaniments
Here is a great recipe my family has enjoyed many times. As the presenter says 'it will be remembered'.
(This recipe is fantastic but it does need a few refinements which we can also give you as you plan your Wooli Chili Mudcrab Experience)

We had a wonderful three night stay in Admirals Deck apartment. Although the weather was very wet, the position was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view of the river. The beach is splendid and so easy to get to and we enjoyed many walks. Great for self-catering, and a short walk to the general store gets you a good coffee. Bed was very comfy - an important feature for us! Thanks very much. We will be back.

We had a fantastic time here. The fact that it was pet friendly was an added bonus, our boy Buddy had the best time too. The apartment was beautiful and Rod & Cathy are wonderful hosts. We absolutely cannot wait to come back! Thank you!!

Absolutely loved everything about this property, great view, amazing beds, so clean (house cleaner is amazing) its like a home away from home!
They have gone over and beyond with this property and thought of everything ppl may need while being away, they have everything in the kitchen a person would need to cook up a storm, they have canoes that you can use x2, board games, bikes, tennis rackets, great wifi, plus more!
Nothing you need to take besides your clothes and wine!
I really enjoyed staying at this property the owners go over and beyond! We will be back

Our family stayed in both the Quarter Deck and Captains bridge apartments for 7nights over Christmas 2018. It was the perfect spot for large families. Captains bridge has beautiful breezes throughout and lovely views from the veranda. Quarter deck has the most amazing entertaining area and gourmet kitchen. Both apartments kitchens had more than enough utensils, so don’t bring anything but your food. We put on a massive Christmas spread using all the apartments dishes provided. Fully equipped for adults and plastic for kids. The beds are so comfy with lovely decorative linen. And the added bonus of having a large 2 person kayak and 5 push bikes to use during our stay. This was our first time to Wooli, but won’t be the last. Thank you Rod for your hospitality.

Quality pet friendly accommodation. 5 out of 5
So good to find excellent, quality accommodation that is dog friendly. The apartment is large, very clean and comfortable. It has everything you need and is well located in a delightful setting overlooking the water.The beach is only two minutes walk away and our little dog Bob was thrilled to run free. There were a few friendly locals around but it was pretty much all ours to enjoy. Wooli is a place to relax and get away from it all, which suited us just fine.

Lovely Apartment - 5 out of 5
We stayed in the Admiral's Deck apartment for 2 nights . It is a large beautifully renovated 2 bedroom apartment with everything one needs available.
The view from the large deck is over the river. The deck has a very large table from which to enjoy the view, plus a barbecue and sitting area.
It is located near the bowling club and also the coffee shop.

We stayed in the captains bridge. We loved the veranda area, use of bikes for exploring the town. We stayed out of season so only ones there and was very quiet. This apartment has everything. Very well equiped kitchen, beautifully decorated apartment. We would definitely stay again. Close to beach. Walking distance to lovely cafe where we enjoyed breakfast. Wooli pub serves the best pizzas.

Seriously this place was lovely. The perfect size for our family of five. The outdoor area was wonderful to sit in and have a drink while the kids played safely. The beach and river were close, the cafe walkable, this place is wonderful. There were people staying above us the whole time and we didn’t hear a thing! The small touches like the outdoor shower, the glad bags, the laundry powder and the coffee machine were great.

Great location right by the river, easy to pop the kayaks out for a quick paddle. Our host was very accommodating to our needs. Everything you need for a getaway and even better that we could bring our 2 dogs, to enjoy our adventures with us!

Rod's place is a great spot to relax and enjoy some quiet time. It is off the beaten track so you're forced to slow a bit. Unfortunately we were rushing through but would loved to have stayed longer. Rod was really helpful and a good communicator.

Beautiful and inviting apartment in a wonderful location. A quiet, sleepy, seaside town with a great coffee shop. Rod was a very lovely host and have lots of little tips about the area. We'll be back ☺ï¸

We were in town for a wedding and needed somewhere that was pet friendly. Captain's bridge was the perfect spot with the apartment being fully stocked and in the perfect location for everything we needed. Walked down the lane way to the beach every day which was just across the road. Definitely recommend this spot!!

Our family of four had a very relaxing, chilled holiday at Rods lovely, newly renovated Property . The location is fantastic, close to the beach with amazing views over Wooli River. We made use of the large outdoor veranda spending time with our family dog, BBQing or enjoying fresh Oysters from the Oyster farm a few meters down the road.

My husband and I have stayed at the apartments on several occasions. Recent refurbishments provide excellent, tasteful decor to complement the lovely location in Wooli, with both the ocean and the river at your doorstep. It's not only a great couples retreat but also a wonderful environment for family holidays. The owners take great pride in their establishment and provide their guests with all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay, all year round.

We had the pleasure of spending a weekend at the Admirals Deck! What a beautiful place. Relaxing from the moment we set foot at the top of the stairs. The view of the river was enough to make us not want to leave! The apartment appeared to be recently renovated with everything you could possibly need (a small oversight of no tea towel however) The beds were very comfortable. We can't wait to return and would recommend to everyone! Brilliant place to stay and brilliant service also.
