On the North Stradbroke Island Tour, migrating whales can be spotted from June to October, along with dolphins and turtles all year round. The island enjoys spectacular ocean views and has a rich history. It is home to many talented artists, a few of which we will visit when we arrive at Dunwich.
On our way to Point Lookout, we will stop at Myora Springs; a small creek leading into the surrounding mangroves.
In Point Lookout, we enjoy the spectacular coastal views on the North Gorge Walk.
North Stradbroke Island has beautiful beaches. It will be difficult to choose one for the stroll after lunch.
Brown Lake gets its name from the colour of the water. The clear tea colour comes from the surrounding tea trees and reeds. The natural bushland surrounding the lake is home to many delicate flowers. Here we will have afternoon tea or a refreshing swim before we head back to the mainland.
You will leave this beautiful tropical island with a lot of wonderful memories.

Myora Springs is a beautiful spot and source of freshwater for the wildlife of the Dunwich area, just a few kilometres out of Dunwich on the road to Amity Point and Point Lookout. Myora Springs, or Moongalba (sitting down place) has a pure-freshwater spring that is running today, just as it has for thousands of years. In the forest surrounding the Myora Springs is an abundance of freshwater crayfish, prawns, bungwal fern, and other plant foods and so it is no surprise to learn this was a favoured camping place of the Aboriginal people. The banks feature parts of large middens, which contain, among other things, cockle, oyster and whelk shells. 30 minutes
North Gorge Walk, Point Lookout, Queensland, Australia The Gorge Walk at Point Lookout is a must for all visitors to the island.

The Gorge Walk also offers stunning views along beautiful Main Beach to Jumpinpin, the Island’s southern tip. 180 minutes

At North Gorge Walk, jumping family of humpback whales were really amazing.
At Amity, wild koalas on the swaying eucalyptus tree in strong wind were not just lovable but admirable. They were totally different from zoo or aquarium.
Anita was very friendly and her guide made us more interested in the wildlife and natural environment in North Stradbroke Island Brisbane. Thank you so much.

I had been to Moreton Island before and enjoyed the Australian islands, so I signed up for this tour because I wanted to visit a different island.
I was wondering what a private tour would be like, but it turned out to be an amazing experience, even better than I had imagined!
First, our tour guide, Anita, picked us up at our hotel in the morning and drove politely with us throughout.
I was so busy right up until the last minute that I didn't have enough time to research the island trip, but I didn't need to worry, Anita took us to many wonderful places!
The view from the North Gorge Walk was especially spectacular and beautiful and seemed to make me forget about time!
We were lucky enough to see a school of whales, a school of dolphins, and a turtle swimming gracefully.
We enjoyed talking with Anita during our trip and had a relaxing lunch break.
We also encountered koalas and kangaroos in the wild, making this a truly Australian trip!
The most impressive part of the trip was Brown Lake.
The leaves of tea trees and other plants change the color of the water in a fantastic way, and I was impressed by this beautiful sight that cannot be seen anywhere else.
I decided that I wanted to spend more time on this island and would definitely revisit it again with my husband!!
Anita told us many stories all the way back to the hotel after getting off the ferry.
We had an exciting day exploring the island, looking for koalas together and discovering iguanas amidst the beautiful sights.
I highly recommend this tour, especially for couples who want to enjoy a relaxing and private trip, or for those who want to enjoy Australia's natural beauty by leaving the entire tour to an experienced guide!
Thank you Anita for a wonderful day. I look forward to seeing you again somewhere!
