Goanna Adventures: Surf n Sand
The ultimate tour to Moreton Island for those who want some action and get value for their "touring dollar". Travel by 4WD in a small group to their base camp, which is only meters from the surf and blue lagoon. This is a true wilderness destination. When you are not racing down the sand hills, learning to surf, or snorkelling at the wrecks, they will show you the island; in fact more of the Island then on any other tour. They will also throw in some history, culture and eco-walks. Tours that will leave you wrecked!
Tour Includes:- Activity 1: Sand boarding and tobogganing at either the "Desert" or the “Big Sandhills". (We are the original sand boarding company and the only one using professional equipment.) Speeds of up to 65kph can be reached on some of the largest sand hills in the World. Full instruction provided. All equipment included.
- Activity 2: Snorkel the famous Tangalooma Wrecks with its 15 ships, sub-tropical reef system and wonderland of marine life, some tame enough to eat out of your hand. Floatation boards, snorkel, mask and fins supplied. (Wetsuits in colder months). Guided.
- Activity 3: Learn to surf with professionally qualified instructors from the Moreton Island Surf School. Fully approved by Surfing Queensland. Soft boards, rash shirts, and wetsuits supplied. Minimum of 2 hours in lessons supplied including theory and practical.
