Sydney, Cresant Heads, Coffs Harbour & Byron Bay

Days: 4-6
Wynnum & Moreton Island
Continuing north along the coast we'll pick up our 4WD vehicle for our 2 day tour of Moreton Island where the world's highest sand dunes await you. With miles of deserted white beaches and inland forests dotted with crystal clear lakes, this is the highlight of the trip for many. We'll hike some of the trails, visit the Tangalooma Wrecks and maybe view dolphins, fish or pods of whales in season. You can also explore the shipwrecks and swim in the Blue Lagoon - a naturally formed "perched lake." As good as Fraser Island without the crowds.

Airlie Beach & Whitsundays Sailing Adventure
Sun, sail, sand and fun await you as we head back to Airlie Beach where we board our 20 metre yacht for our two day/two night sailing cruise through the Whitsunday Islands. One of the highlights of any East Coast adventure, you'll live aboard the yacht and cruise between these paradise islands, mooring to explore or snorkel the reef. One of the highlights of this cruise is Whitsunday Island, which is home to Whitehaven Beach - one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. You'll also have plenty of time to gaze into the turquoise waters, sunbathe on the deck and spot turtles or dolphins following the yacht. Everything is supplied on this unique Australian adventure. Do we have to go back to the mainland already?
