Go kayaking with dolphins and 4-wheeling on the beach during a half-day tour on the Sunshine Coast, just north of Brisbane. Visit a National Park location that is only accessible by 4WD vehicle, and kayak around Double Island Point looking for dolphins, migrating whales, turtles, rays and more.

Double Island Point is one of the best places in Australia to learn to surf and this half-day tour from Noosa is ideal for first-time surfers. Follow the Great Beach Drive to the island by 4WD, enjoy magnificent views of Rainbow Beach, then join an expert instructor for a surf lesson on the island’s gorgeous beach.

See whales in their natural habitat as you embark on a whale-watching tour out to Noosa heads. Join a small group, board your vessel, and set out in search of humpback whales. These gentle giants make their way to the area in the winter months and put on a show for spectators, breaching the waters, tail slapping, and swimming with their calves.

Take a self-guided tour around Caloundra, finding hidden gems and learning more about the area than you would by yourself!
