A tour away from the everyday

 

Beach & Rainforest Tour

 

 

fter crossing the Noosa River by ferry, our sandy 4WD adventure begins on Teewah Beach, along the shores of the South Pacific Ocean. Driving along the beach we’ll see and explore the renowned Teewah Coloured Sands with features such as the Cathedrals, Snow on the Mountain and Red Canyon. 50 km up the beach from Noosa, we visit the shipwreck of the Cherry Venture, which makes a forlorn sight, left high and dry by a 1973 cyclone.

Only 3 km further Teewah Beach ends at Double Island Point. Here at the southern access gate, we take a short stroll up the rocky headland, where from high above the waves, we often see turtle, dolphin and Manta ray. From June to October, it is also possible to see Humpback whales on their northern migration. Depending on beach and/or tide conditions, we may use the northern access gate instead but either way this is a very special experience, for most people.

as we continue our journey, we travel along picturesque Wide Bay and more Coloured Sands to Rainbow Beach township. This is where we leave the beach behind and head inland to experience an ancient rainforest.

This rainforest grows in pure sand, which makes the variety, and beauty of the plant-life, seem even more remarkable. From the massive canopy trees like the Purple Quandong, to the smallest epiphytes and mosses, this ancient eco-system will charge the senses and leave you with a sense of awe.

While you take a leisurely walk under the towering canopy, your Aussie BBQ lunch is prepared and ready on your return. After lunch we travel along four-wheel drive forest tracks where different species of birds and animals, are often encountered, on the way back to the beach, Noosa and beyond…
