Join us for an exciting day trip to the world's second-largest sand island as we visit North Stradbroke Island. Plus, we'll try to spot koalas and kangaroos!
North Stradbroke Island Day Trip
We'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point and set off by mini-bus towards North Stradbroke Island! Sit back, relax, and prepare for an exciting day amid North Stradbroke Island's breathtaking natural landscapes.
First, we'll take a 30-minute ferry from Brisbane to reach the island. Along the way, be sure to soak up the stunning panoramic views! Upon arrival, we'll head to our first stop of the day: the North Gorge Walk lookout point. Here, we'll be treated to breathtaking ocean views and rugged cliffside landscapes. Keep your eyes peeled, as we may even spot some marine animals like dolphins, sea turtles, and whales during the whale season.
From here, we'll find a picture-perfect spot to have lunch for the best picnic with a stunning view. No worries if you forgot to pack lunch; there are local cafes nearby that are perfect for snagging a yummy treat and enjoying our meal outdoors. Once we've refueled, we'll have some free time where you can wander the beach at your own pace. Take a refreshing dip, play some beach sports, or just bask in the Australian sun at one of the best beaches on the island.
Next, we'll head to Amity Point, home to a secluded beach that's a real treat for wildlife enthusiasts. Here, we'll try to spot koalas and kangaroos in their natural habitats. Plus, we may even spot dolphins playing in the nearby crystalline waters!
As our day comes to an end, we'll sit down to relax along the beach and watch the sunset over the horizon. To end the day on an even higher note, we'll enjoy a complimentary drink, putting the perfect finishing touch on a day well spent.
Then, after this magical day of natural exploration, we'll board our ferry back to Brisbane and drop you off at the starting point.
