Experience extraordinary whale encounters in the most natural and low-impact way possible — by ocean kayak in the pristine Great Sandy National Park.
This is whale watching without engines, noise, or crowds. Just us and the ocean — allowing for a truly respectful and immersive wildlife experience that larger boat tours simply can’t offer.
Our fully guided kayak tours are designed around a “paddles up” approach, meaning we never chase or disturb marine life. Instead, we observe whales on their terms, creating safe, natural encounters that align with conservation and responsible wildlife tourism.
During the whale migration season, humpbacks are commonly seen from the moment we begin our scenic 4x4 beach drive along Noosa North Shore. Once on the water, sightings can range from very close, unforgettable encounters to more distant surface activity — all depending entirely on the whales and their natural behaviour. Every tour is different, and that’s exactly what makes it special.
Beyond whales, you may also encounter dolphins, turtles, and rays throughout the journey.
The destination, Double Island Point, is a truly unique National Park location. Accessed only by 4x4 through Noosa North Shore and Teewah Beach, Double Island Point feels worlds away from busy Noosa and tourist boat routes. This remote setting means fewer crowds, cleaner waters, and a more authentic connection to nature.
Each year, around 40,000 humpback whales migrate along this coastline, with some resting in the calm waters of Double Island Point with their calves — offering rare and unforgettable wildlife moments in a truly protected environment.
