  • Days: 1-2 Sydney, Coffs Harbour & Byron Bay

Say a fond farewell to Sydney as we set out on our adventure. Leaving via the harbour bridge, we travel the coast road through Taree. We stop at a koala breeding park and sanctuary before heading onto our first night's accommodation in cabins on the beach. A great opportunity for a BBQ tonight. Continue up the coast through Coffs Harbour to Byron Bay. Try your hand at surfing and "drop in" on a wave, stroll the beach promenade or just visit the shops and famous lighthouse.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included



  • Days: 3-5 Gold Coast & Moreton Island

Crossing the Queensland border we wind our clocks back an hour and the pace slows down. Picking up our 4WD vehicle we take a barge out to Moreton Island, where the world's highest sand dunes await you. Two days here with Al and the crew will leave you chilled out. With miles of deserted white beaches and inland forests dotted with crystal clear lakes, this is the highlight of the trip for many. Snorkel in the refreshing waters around the sunken ship wrecks, hike Mt Tempest, the highest stabilized sand dune in the world, or just scream down our huge sand boarding run. As good as Fraser Island without the crowds.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included



  • Days: 6-8 Mooloolabah & Cattle Station

Kick back for a few days at the inland cattle station. Jump on a horse or motorbike and help out with the daily fun on this 2,600 acre working cattle property. Meals are cooked over the open fire and Olive's home made biscuits just melt in your mouth.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included



  • Days: 9-10 Airlie Beach

Full of home cooking, we head back to the coast to Airlie Beach, the gateway of our expedition to the Whitsunday Island Group, some of the most picturesque sailing in the world. Choose from a 20 meter luxury yacht to a fast moving Ocean Rafting boat, explore Whitehaven beach or snorkel the inner Barrier Reef but please don't forget that suntan lotion as the Ozzie sun is hot. In the evening you can check out a live band & the local nightlife.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included



  • Days: 11-12 Mission Beach

Mission Beach doesn't shut down in summer. For those with a strong sense of adventure the adrenaline pumping white water rafting is at its peak. Alternatively, come and hike in the rain forest when it's raining and everything is lush and green!There is also tandem sky diving, fishing or even try sea kayaking out to luxurious Dunk Island. For a more leisurely day simply lounge on Mission Beach and work on your suntan. The choice is yours.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included



  • Days: 13-14 Cairns & Great Barrier Reef

We make our way to Cairns and board our multi million dollar sailing yacht for a full day on the Outer Barrier Reef. Snorkel amongst the coral, marvel at the multitude of colours the fish will parade in front of you, wander on the sand atoll or try scuba diving (no experience needed) all in the same day! Don't worry; we will supply a mouth watering tropical lunch just to keep your energy up.
Accommodation: Budget lodging included

Tour ends at approx 17:00 - 18:00 hrs in Cairns on day 14.
