What to Expect: Sustainable Adventure & Scenic Beauty Your day begins with a ferry ride across Moreton Bay, where you can soak in the coastal views and keep an eye out for dolphins gliding through the waters. Upon arrival, experience the island’s natural beauty firsthand, from untouched bushland to sparkling beaches. Wildlife Encounters in Their Natural Habitat Join our guided North Gorge Walk, where you'll traverse rugged cliffs and lush bushland, with opportunities to spot kangaroos, birdlife, and—during whale season (July to November)—humpback whales on their migration.
