Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any age restrictions?

No, this tour is suitable for all ages! You just need to be physically able to transfer from the main boat to the tender, then onto the beach.

Can we bring a pram/stroller onboard?

Yes, the boat has plenty of space for prams and strollers!

Is the tour wheelchair accessible?

The vessel is wheelchair accessible. However, we recommend a good level of physical fitness for getting on and off the boat. The island is sandy and we cannot take wheelchairs across to K'gari, so you will need some mobility to partake in the activities on K'gari.

Is there snorkel gear or fishing equipment onboard?

There is snorkel gear onboard for you to use! There is no fishing gear, but you are welcome to bring your own equipment.

Is it safe to swim on K'gari?

As this tour visits the west coast of K'gari, it is safe to swim! The waters on this side are protected and calm, as opposed to the exposed east coast which has stronger currents that may be unsuitable for swimming.

Can my dietary requirements be catered for?

Yes, special dietary requirements can be catered for on request if you notify us in advance!
