Discover the natural side of the Gold Coast on a guided kayaking adventure through the Broadwater, a unique estuary where the Nerang River meets the ocean. Paddle past hidden sandbanks, mangroves, and islands while spotting and learning about local wildlife including dolphins, stingrays, osprey, and more.
Most kayak tours stick to the same route.
We’re more like a pelican following a fisherman: always adapting to where the action is.
Every day on the water is different, shaped by the tides, wildlife, and the group itself. Expect a relaxed, fun, and genuinely personal adventure with experienced, caring guides who love sharing their passion for nature.
Depending on conditions, you may explore Wave Break Island, South Stradbroke Island, Carter’s Bank, or Curlew Island, with opportunities to stop, explore, swim, or simply enjoy the scenery away from the busy tourist areas. Small groups create a more flexible and connected experience, with time to enjoy the journey at a comfortable pace.
