Cruise deep into the tranquil mirrored waterways of Australias’ only Everglades. This spectacular network of wetlands showcases ancient landscapes and offers spectacular photo opportunities.

Australia’s Everglades are found in the Northern end of the Noosa River system, perched within the sand dunes of the Cooloola National Park. An untouched, pristine wilderness area which is home to over 44% of Australia’s bird species.

Pure fresh water pulses out of the Cooloola Sandmass and filters through the tea tree infused ecosystem into this unique river system – creating the most spectacular reflections you will ever see….

Choose to experience the Everglades in the comfort of our specially designed eco boats (OR) Cruise to our canoe launch area – grab a paddle, jump in a canoe and experience one of the best canoeing adventures in Australia (5km canoe leg to Harry’s hut – moderate fitness level required).

You have the choice…….. Give us a day and we will give them memories for life!
