What to expect

Discover the natural beauty and cultural heritage of North Stradbroke Island on a full-day guided tour from Brisbane. Start with a scenic 45-minute drive to the ferry terminal, then enjoy a smooth ferry crossing with the option to purchase breakfast on board.

On arrival, your first stop is Brown Lake, where you can refresh in its tea-tree stained waters and learn about the cultural significance of the Quandamooka people. Continue with a quick visit to Myora Springs before reaching Cylinder Beach for a relaxing walk or a swim.

The highlight of the day is the Gorge Walk — a 40 to 45-minute coastal trail offering breathtaking views of the Coral Sea and the chance to spot manta rays, dolphins, turtles, and other marine life. After the walk, take a break for lunch at Point Lookout before heading to Amity Point, where your guide will help you search for koalas in the wild.

Your adventure concludes with a ferry ride back to the mainland, with expected arrival in Brisbane around 7 PM. With stunning landscapes, wildlife encounters, and cultural insights, this tour offers a complete Stradbroke Island experience.

Bob was the perfect tour guide. He guided us through the day in an amazingly friendly and professional manner. He helped us spot wild kangaroos and koala, dolphins and whales and a whole host of birds. He was knowledgeable about the local area, telling us the best places to get coffee and lunch and he even drove us around to buy rain ponchos when some of us were not equipped for the torrential rain! Thank you Bob for a truly incredible trip.

Absolutely fantastic day! Rob was a terrific guide with great expertise and lots of fun as well. We got to see stunning views, swam at a wonderful beach, and saw amazing wildlife including dolphins, a family of kangaroos and four (!) beautiful wild Koalas. Would gladly recommend the trip, it was well wirth its price tag.
