Some super close encounters with the giants of the deep this month. So many Humpback whales passing us by on tour. We are really seeing an increase in numbers this year with many young ones playing near our kayaks and curiously checking us out. If your a nature lover come and live a little adventure with us 🙂

I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking the ultimate adventure. Travelling from the Gold Coast, we didn't know much about the scenic areas of Noosa. Vince, our tour guide (and legend) was a captive spirit and great leader who took care of us. He prepped us for the kayaks and provided interesting information on the way.We saw dolphins almost immediately and paddled for up to 4 km before enjoying a sunny afternoon in Double Island. Vince has great passion towards wildlife, nature and is motivated to keep the beaches clean.This adventure will put a smile on your face and create a long lasting memory.Shoutout to Vince for having us on your bday! :D

We had a great time on the tour with Epic Ocean Adventures. It was a bit of a drive to get to the destination but the guys made it really enjoyable with a relaxed humour and plenty of knowledge and passion. Getting amongst the wildlife was wonderful, spotting manta rays, two pods of dolphins, turtles, and whales in the distance, it is an experience we will never forget. The drive back on the beach was magical and seemed to take no time at all. We were picked up and dropped off at our accommodation which made it all the more relaxing. A great day! The time flew.

Absolutely awesome experience! We did the dolphin kayak tour. We saw whales, dolphins, turtles, stingray, crabs, fish, and loads of native onshore wildlife. Vince 'The Legend' is an A+ guide with a spark of Aussie humour, endless candid insight about the area, and diligence in regard to safety at all times during the trip. Definitely recommend doing a tour with EPIC.

The tour was awesome. Vince is a really amazing and knowledgeable and fun tour guide. We saw whales, dolphins, turtles, eagles and even soldier crabs. He shares his knowledge of the ocean life and definitely a very passionate person. We really enjoyed the day and would recommend this tour at any time.

We had such a fantastic day with Tyron as our guide and his little three year old! The drive to and from Double Island Point was fun and beautiful. It was our first time kayaking but Tyron made us feel guided and safe all the way through. We also got to see a pod of dolphins close up, which was great! It was a memorable experience and we would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a wild life adventure at Noosa :)

I cannot recommend this tour enough! It’s absolutely stunning, from the beach drive, to the crystal blue waters and if you’re lucky enough the majestic dolphins and whales too! Our guide Vince was incredibly knowledgeable and offered insightful trivia along the way. He also ensured our safety was a priority and created a fun group atmosphere. This tour is a must!

I had so much fun on a kayak tour with Epic Ocean Adventures yesterday! Our kayak tour guide Vince was so fun and knowledgable, showing us all the local wildlife along the beach on our way to Double Island Point. On the kayak tour we saw a big pod of dolphins, turtles and even a manta ray! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Sunshine Coast. Double Island Point truly is a hidden gem!

My partner and I had an epic day at double island point with the surfing tour. From the drive up the beach to the fascinating soldier crabs and amazing view of Rainbow beach, this was more than just a surf lesson. The waves were great for both myself (beginner) and my partner, a novice surfer. This is a must if you are staying in Noosa and want a bit of an adventure and want to explore more of the surrounding area. Tyron was informative about the area and had some great stories to tell us about it. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone who loves the outdoors or surfing and couldn't have felt more comfortable, welcomed, or safe. Definitely a great day out!

We had a fantastic day out to Double Island Point, and saw huge sea turtles and stingrays while kayaking. It’s such a beautiful spot and Vince was an entertaining and expert guide. We saw a number of lace monitor lizards wandering around which was amazing. My teens were thoroughly tired out afterwards :) and loved the kayaking and beach drive, racing against the tide. . Would highly recommend!

My friend and I recently went on a kayak tour at Double Island Point - what an amazing experience! We were driven along the beach past the coloured sands (you don't get to do that every day!). We were lucky enough to see some dolphins out on the water during our kayak tour. Staff were lovely and we had a great time. Definitely recommend!

we had such an amazing experience with Epic Ocean Adventures. Our guide, Vince, was very knowledgeable about the area but also lots of fun. We were able to get close enough to the whales to hear them talk whale, very cool! Would highly recommend this tour!

My girlfriend and I did the Dolphin Kayak tour from Noosa and loved it. Michael the tour guide was enthusiastic and knowledgable, the 4WD up the beach was magic and the paddling on the crystal clear water at Double Island Point was amazing. We saw half a dozen dolphins up close as well as a number of turtles and even a whale in the distance. All up well worth the money!

The tour with Ty & Vince was fantastic ... We not only saw turtles and dolphins, but also a whale with a baby swimming by not more than 50m away. You learn a lot about the park and the amazing area and you feel all the time that Ty & Vince really do it out of passion ...Christoph, Christine, Pauline, Charlotte

I joined Vince and the team on a ocean kayak trip. It was a beautiful day and we were lucky enough to spot hump back whales and turtles. The tour was really well organised, but still very relaxed and laid back. The team were very knowledgeable, helpful and fun. I’ll be definitely recommending them to friends.

excellent time hanging out with Vince and the crew, Vince made us feel really welcome and his knowledge of the land and Wildlife is definitely worth listening toWe set out from Noosa and it was raining and it rain until we were in the water but the whole time Vince and the crew from epic ocean adventures made sure it was safe and that we would have a wonderful experience in the kayaks and see some whales and dolphins which we didI would highly recommend them for this awesome experience

Signed up for surfing. What we got were a fun drive along the beach, whales, dolphins goannas, funny stories. Then surfing on a long small wave great for beginners. In short best value trip you can ask for.

We had such a great time on our Dolphin View Kayak + Great Beach Adventure! Alex was our guide and he was the best! The beach drive was super fun, and we saw many dolphins during the kayak! How nice it was to see them like that, in the wild! We loved it! Really great experience!

Superb location with beautiful long waves to get you on your board. In comparison with other companies I hired boards from, these were by far the best. The crew is nice and funny and the 4WD scenery is just stunning.

Had a great time out in the waves on the amazing beach at Double Island Point. Instructors managed their time with each of us to ensure that everyone caught an equal amount of waves, had stacks of fun, and got the hot tips needed to get to our feet. Cheers Epic!

Fiona Waddington

04:55 11 Jan 18

Wow, what a day we had! A trip by 4wd along a stunning beach from Noosa to the 'secret spot', Double Island Point. Well, they weren't lying...it was a great beginner wave that went on and on. I got to my feet first lesson and had lots of really long rides...so much more than I expected to achieve! Great crew, great location, great day. Thank you!

Michelle Tomadin

These guys are amazing tour guides and awesome surfing instructors too! As a beginner I had one the best surfs I've had yet! I highly recommended Epic, they're super friendly and full of interesting tips and tricks about the ocean!

I did not believe it would be possible to have such a close nature experience .As if kayaking in such beautiful surroundings wasn't enough ,which would have done me, we had a pod of whales approaching us from a long distance away and pass 1m under my boat, followed by being surrounded by a pod of dolphins. Such an experience will stay with me foreverI found the staff looked after everyone individually very well, I got on particularly well with the weird old Dutch guy thanks guys

We had a surf lesson with Rhys and it was amazing! There were 7 in our group. 4 were total beginners. Rhys helped the newbies as well as providing awesome coaching to the experienced surfers. This spot is simply perfect. We will definitely be back!!
