Named Moorgumpin by the native Ngugi tribe who lived
before the colonization, Moreton Island
Activities Australia is one of the most beautiful tour
destinations in Australia. This third largest sand island in the world is
located on the eastern side of the Moreton Bay, on the coast of South East
Queensland in Australia. Located within the city limits of Brisbane, 95% of the
island is contained within a national park and hence has been able to be free
of any kind of misuse by people visiting the place. Initially this island used
to be a weekend getaway for people living in the nearby areas but as more and
more people became aware of its potential as a great tourist destination; it
has become one of the most sought after places for camping, four wheel driving,
whale watching and for day tours.
Tourists visiting the place fall in love with the sun
kissed beaches, majestic sand dunes and the crystal clear water of the sea
where you can swim in gay abandon. As tourism is a huge business in this part
of Australia you will come across a lot of tour companies which have come up in
the recent years. But if you are looking for a totally hassle free vacation
then you can pick up a day tour or go for the 1/2 day tour packages offered by
Sunset Safari, one of the most popular tour operators who come highly
recommended by trip advisor. The 2 day explorer tour is one of the most popular
ones which let you explore this beautiful island in greater details and enjoy
the scenic surroundings like never before. The Moreton Island
Travel Packages comes with free pick up and drop service
and includes a MiCat ferry ride which turns out to be extremely enjoyable with
a well stocked up bar and cafe. The cruise across the Moreton Bay is extremely
enjoyable and what can be a better way than this to break the ice and know your
fellow travellers.
The Moreton Island adventure starts with four wheel
drive in one of the company’s super comfortable coaches and from its picture
windows you will catch glimpses of the beautiful scenery and realize why this
island is called the Gem of South East Queensland. The visitors are taken to
see the oldest lighthouse named Cape Moreton Light which was built way back in
1857. From there one can easily see the marine animals like turtles, dolphins,
sharks and Manta Rays swimming close to the shore and during the whale season
it is great to watch the majestic Humpback whales. The tour guides will take
you to visit the museum, Honeymoon Bay and North Point and you can swim in the
Champagne Pools and breathtakingly beautiful Blue Lagoon fresh water lake. Sand
Tobogganing is one of the most exciting things you can do here and the
exhilaration felt during the time when you zip down at a speed of 70 km per
hour is something which cannot be described.
The Tangalooma shipwreck site is ideal for swimming
and snorkelling. With the snorkelling gear being provided for and body suits
for hire it is easy to go under water and see the amazing water world with its
unique flora and fauna. Night Kayaking is another adventure activity which was
pioneered by this company and though it is an optional activity; it is greatly
enjoyed by the visitors. With the LED lights fixed on the transparent kayaks
it’s really wonderful to see the underwater activities that look that look
surreal. Then of course there are beach parties, campfires and though there are
ample accommodations in the Eurong Resorts many people prefer the Eco Glamping
experience which offers tent living with all the amenities of a luxury hotel
room. So get ready for the adventure of a lifetime with Sunset Safari and
comeback with memories that will last you a lifetime.
