Double Island Point can only be accessed by 4wd along the beach around the low tide and due to this times change daily.  Please contact our friendly staff for specific day departure times.

The Noosa tours and lessons are a day trip around 6 hours in duration and Rainbow Beach tours are half day around 3 hours in duration.

The Noosa tours and lessons takes a route through Noosa North Shore, over the ferry and along the spectacular Teewah Beach only accessed at low tide by 4X4. This unique stretch of beach is 51km to Double Island Point typically on our specilised 4X4 bus where you can view the wide open beaches in comfort and guides will spot out different wildlife along the way including sea birds, local dolphins, turtles, sea snakes and the diverse range of local campers relaxing by the beach. One of many highlight of this drive is through the whale season spotting the whales as they migrate and play along the beach on the drive in large numbers (June-Nov). Noosa tours typically operate using a fully air conditioned specilised 4X4 bus and also includes snacks and refreshments, ferry fees and toilet rest area.

The Rainbow Beach tours drive from the north with 12km of magical driving views to Double Island Point please be mindful the beach is sometimes unable to be accessed and requires a route not along the beach completely and access through the freshwater track which requires extra travel time. Operates using Toyota Troopcarriers. Rainbow Beach departures do not experience the Noosa North Shore, Teewah Beach or ferry and does not include snacks unless booking private option.

If you’re staying in Noosa and prefer self driving to Rainbow Beach for the day and joining the half day trip please be mindful the travel will take you at least 2 hours (one-way) through inland roads. (Bruce Hwy via Gympie is best). We highly recommend joining from Noosa if staying here or on the Sunshine Coast and experiencing the Great Sandy National Parks unique Teewah Beach only accessed by 4X4 on our specilised comfort bus.

There are a number of best practices we encourage when on tour within the Great Sandy National Park to ensure strong conservation and sustainable practices in the protection of of the important eco system . Some of these include:

Staying clear of highly sensitive areas such as nesting sites, sand dunes and important vegetation. This includes walking on, climbing, collecting, defacing or interfering.

Picking up any litter or foreign objects and place in trailer boxes and removing all your items and waste on completion of your visit. Leave only foot prints!

Applying sunscreen at least 15 minutes before entering the water to minimise water pollution.

Observing and enjoying wildlife whilst doing so with minimum disturbance.

Viking double kayaks – Highly stable and simple to use. 80% of our clients have never kayaked on the ocean before.

All parking in front of our shop in Rainbow Beach is free and generally pretty well available. If you’re driving to a pick-up point in Noosa we recommend Pelican Boat hire as there are free parking options available.

We are highly experienced in reading weather forecasts and observations for Double Island Point. If we see conditions are not suitable for tour. We will contact you as soon as possible to find a more suitable time. There is no need for contacting us yourself as public weather websites are not as accurate; especially for a remote national park as Double Island!
