Noosa Heads: Hidden Waterways & Wildlife Kayak Tour - (Self Guided / Fully Guided / Private)
Duration:
Operated By:
The tour begins at the serene hidden waterways right at Noosa Heads, a stunning mangrove ecosystem known for its perfectly calm, shallow waters and rich biodiversity. The name “Weyba” comes from the Aboriginal word for “Stingray,” and with so many of these graceful creatures calling the creek home, you’ll quickly see why.
As we paddle, you’ll float through enchanting mangrove tunnels. These natural pathways, created by dense mangrove growth along the edges and over the tops of narrow creeks and lakes, are a surreal and mystical experience.
There is a nice spot along the way where we will stop so you can have a quick and refreshing swim. This is totally optional though!
We can pick you up from locations in Noosaville and Noosa Heads!

Loved it

It was sunny and warm but windy and the water was very choppy, so not easy to paddle and we got wet quickly. But it was the best day of our two week trip in Australia. We were lucky to see 6 whales, very close to our kayaks, and a young whale playing with the dolphins.
Thanks to our guide Liam for having given us the opportunity to share this magical wild life. The driving on the beach along the colorful cliffs and the "blueberry" crabs were also very beautiful and fun.
I recommend this trip to every body. Take care of our nature and wild life.
Highly recommended.








Moments after meeting Vince, we knew that the day was going to be superb. He is super laid back and easy going, overflowing with passion and knowledge all things nature and wildlife. He made sure we were all comfortable and well informed before going out to sea via kayak. He was thorough through and through. We were in very capable hands.
The long drive along the coast was beautiful. Fortunately we got to see a bunch of turtles, dolphins and even a humpback dolphin! It was an experience we’ll never forget.
Thank you Vince and Epic Ocean Adventures for the memorable day!
P.S. Vince deserves a pay rise for his undying passion!! 😆

Sean was easy going and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.




The kayak tour itself was a bit heavy for the kids because the waves were pretty high. But in the end we did see a whale really closely.




A fantastic way to spend some time in Rainbow Beach.











Started with the guided beach and bush four wheel drive seeing varied landscapes, then on our kayaks we were lucky enough to spot whales! What a magical experience. Our trip ended with a rainforest drive.
Superb thankyou Sean!
I highly recommend this adventure.





The drive along the beach was an experience, and Sean's lively commentary showed his passion for going to his 'office'. And with an office like this, who wouldn't love it?!
From beachwalk with the soldier crabs, kayaking around Double Island Point in the midst of some whales and dolphins, and a quick dip in Honeymoon Bay, it was an unforgettable day.
Huge thanks to them both, and for our AirBNB hostess, Sam, for recommending them.
