Fraser Island Half Day Eco Sailing Adventure
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
Spend your morning sailing around the waters off Fraser Island off the coast of Queensland with this half day Eco Sailing Adventure. Taking you around the World Heritage Listed island in a modern vessel and giving you time to explore the island on foot, this is one of the most scenic and enjoyable ways to visit Fraser Island.
Taking you to both Fraser Island and nearby Pelican Bay, you'll be able to dive into the crystal clear waters for a day of fun in the sun. When travelling between destinations you'll also have the chance to sit in the net at the back of the boat to make the journey a refreshing one.
The fun doesn't stop there, as the cruise ventures into waters that are frequented by large pods of dolphins. Keep your eyes peeled as you might be lucky enough to spot playful pods of dolphins in the waters nearby or even migrating Humpback Whale (during migration season).
While on board you'll be served a refreshing morning tea while also chatting to the friendly and multi-lingual crew on-board. Cruises depart the Great Sandy Straits Marina in Hervey Bay at 8:15am with accommodation transfers starting from 7:30am.
The vessel includes free-wifi and plenty of shaded seats making it one of the most comfortable journeys around the region.
