Discover the natural beauty of Moreton Island and the Tangalooma Island Resort, only a stone’s throw away from Brisbane. In just over an hour thanks to a scenic Moreton Bay Cruise, you’ll arrive at this idyllic paradise with a desert safari tour and helicopter flight included.
The desert safari tour is a must do activity on Moreton Island lasting 1.5 hours. Jump aboard the 4WD bus to journey to sand dunes. Get ready to participate in sand tobogganning, reaching speeds of up to 40km/hour.
Later in the day, head to the helipad for an aerial flyover of the island resort, sand hills and Tangalooma Wrecks. Wrap up the day with a cocktail or mocktail at sunset and watch the dolphin feeding program take place as the gracious creatures pop by for their nightly feed. A return cruise will deliver you back to Brisbane after a full day of adventure at Tangalooma Island Resort.
