About this tour
Launch straight onto one of Australia's largest sand islands from Bills Boat Hire—Bribie Island's northern tip sits minutes away by kayak. Paddle the tidal lagoon past upside-down jellyfish, sea cucumbers and stingrays, or explore Pumicestone Passage, a nursery ground teeming with migratory waders, pelicans and kites. An hour's rental lets you reach this protected National Park shoreline with your own provisions and time to spare.

What to expect
You'll collect a single or double kayak with paddles and safety gear from the hire station, then paddle across calm waters toward Bribie Island's northern reach. The tidal lagoon reveals marine life close to the surface—jellyfish, sea cucumbers, rays—whilst overhead you might spot pelicans, kites and terns working the shoreline. The passage itself is sensitive, pristine country; paddling here feels quieter and less touched than nearby commercial beaches. With an hour's hire, you have room to explore at your pace, anchor for a swim, or simply drift and watch the birds.
Good to know
You must be a confident swimmer. Spinal injuries and poor cardiovascular health make this unsuitable. Single kayaks carry up to 120 kg; doubles up to 220 kg. Infant seats are available. Bring sunscreen, water and snacks; the hour passes quickly once you're paddling.
