Paddle Adelaide’s mangrove creeks, spot dolphins and shipwrecks, and learn about this calm coastal ecosystem on a relaxed three-hour kayak tour.

“We had a lot of fun and a super friendly guide. We saw the mangroves, several wrecks and dolphins nearby. The initial training / rehearsal for kajak rookies was excellent. Although we were experienced, it clearly helped some other group attendees. We would just recommend some grouping into experienced and inexperienced guests. Some of our group were very inexperienced and delayed the tour significantly. We were really happy that our tour guide flexibly adapted to the conditions and allowed us some free kajakimg which assured us seeing the dolphins. Thanks a lot!”

Review of Noosa’s 4WD beach and kayak tour to Double Island Point, with wildlife, practical tips, value, fitness advice, and FAQs.

“Our guides Cam and Nick were amazing. Unfortunately other than one Dorsal fin we didn’t see any animals but the place is so incredible and the guides were great that the kayaking experience by itself was worth the trip. We had rough enough conditions so wasn’t for the faint hearted or poor swimmers, and was a little sea sick inducing for some. Over all a great day out.”
