Join us on an incredible journey kayaking through the waters of the Gold Coast, snorkelling, swimming and exploring the Islands we visit before relaxing on an exclusive beach side location and enjoying the spectacular views!

We start our journey departing from Broadwater, after a kayaking safety induction, and paddle through the stunning clear waters, where we might spot dolphins, stingray and an array of tropical fish! We will paddle through to South Stradbroke Island, one of the largest sand islands in the world, just minutes from Surfers Paradise. Here we will embark on a bush walk to the Island’s eastern side, reaching an exclusive surfing spot. Along your walk the bush opens up into the sea and over 21km of pristine white sand beach.

Our adventure continues as we paddle our way to Wave Break Island, arriving on the northern side of the island to park out kayaks before a short bush walk to the eastern side of the Island. Once we’ve reached the eastern side, our experienced tour guides will give you a safety snorkelling induction and get you ready for a spectacular snorkelling experience.

After your snorkelling session we will paddle to our waterfront Chill-Out Zone, an exclusive area we’ve created to indulge you after your long journey. Enjoy good shade, music and a delicious healthy beach picnic lunch to enjoy while laying on one our provided beach mats.

    Fun for the Fit

    It is a great experience if you are fit OR if you have two people paddling! Wouldn't recommend for kids younger then 12. I took my daughter (7) we were given a double kayak but because she didn't paddle and was super light it made it so much harder as the nose kept lifting and it was a bit stressful crossing the channel and there wasn't much assistance in getting across we also had winds which made it more difficult to navigate and im quite strong and fit. Had i done it by myself i would of enjoyed it a lot more, the walks on the island and the swimming stops afterwards were beautiful, cant fault it and the crew are lovely.

    Great experience

    We booked because we needed a day in nature, and felt that's what we got. We enjoyed the kayaking, although winds meant we had to use some muscle at times ( that's in a 2 person yak with a 10 year old). Patty and Sarah were both great hosts who know the area well. Great day had by all. Only thing missing was a coffee or tea at picnic time.

    Chill Out Kayaking Tour - Biggera Waters

    Was OK. Said it was a full day adventure however was over by 12:30. Lunch was a bit lacking. Few bits and pieces from the local supermarket. No shade in the chill out area. No dolphins spotted. Photos taken by the guide were taken too far away. Over all, underwhelmed.

    Hi Lawrence! First of all thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to know we did get the best feedback from you. To address your review: regarding the time our tour is a FULL MORNING tour, Not a full day tour. The tour time is 8:30AM-1:00pm approximately, sometimes we finish slightly earlier, sometimes we finish slightly later, this would merely depend on weather conditions, group size and performance and this is stated on our website. We would like to know how you got confused with the times. Regarding the lunch we are providing a variety of cheeses, hams, vegetables, dips and dressings including also fruits and biscuits. If you have any suggestion about something we can add please let us know, we would love to take your suggestion. Regarding the shade, we love to enjoy the natural shades of the trees we find around the Island and we also always bring a big shade with us that we set if our customers need an extra shaded area. Regarding the dolphins, this is something we cannot absolutely control, dolphins here are in their natural habitat and therefore it is just when they want to come close when we are lucky to spot them. This is also clearly stated on our website. We have checked your album and the pictures loaded are within our standards with a good distance, bright colours and good variety. We wish you all the best and if you come back to the Gold Coast we would like to take you out again so we can change your feedback for a better experience :) All the best!
