Thrill seeking and vastly educational experience!

5.00A knowledgable and friendly tour guide and a once in a lifetime experience getting so close to the dolphins in the wild! We had choppy weather on our tour, which we were warned about, but always felt extremely safe in Brent’s experience and enjoyed the thrill of surfing and breaking the waves. Also learned a lot about the Geography, history and heritage of the area. Would recommend to anyone who visits the area, also an easy to digest time slot of 1.5 hours!

5.00We had a brilliant time dolphin watching and saw two pods with babies. The ride is exhilarating, but respectful around the dolphins. Brent is upbeat and knowledgeable and we learn a lot about the area. This trip is not to be missed!
Best tour - highlight of our holiday!!!!

5.00Seeing dolphins, was one of the best parts! Brent’s amazing knowledge of the area and riding the waves. Brent was awesome and went through a full safety brief, took us close to the dolphins, birds and turtles and told us all about the landmarks. He is a top bloke and it was very easy to enjoy our time together. Delighted by the whole experience and would highly recommend- was the highlight of my holiday. Over achieved on expectations! The tour was very peaceful on the water but we also enjoyed the time we went fast - perfect combination for me and my family.perfect 1.5 hour trip - just right amount of time and great value for money. Brent was very engaging but not overly so allowing you to enjoy scenery and wildlife. Can’t speak highly enough of this tour - please don’t hesitate to book and enjoy!

5.00A great experience - the pilot was excellent & gave us plenty of information & navigated the swells & the Noosa Bar perfectly. Definitely gave my legs (aka pistons) a work out. Money well spent.
A bri!liant adventure

5.00A really great morning with Brent. The scenery was stunning and we got to see dolphins. As a more mature couple we thoroughly enjoyed it. The next day I felt like my legs had done a marathon, due to the rising trot required when jumping through some of the waves. Brilliant, thoroughly recommend this adventure. 11th Dec.25 .
Excellent experience
