Place to do with pretty beaches and pretty scenery

Place to do with pretty beaches and pretty scenery Especially a landlocked beach whose name I do not know but which you will see in my photos. We met kangaroos on the loose😎👍 Be careful to plan the crossing times, the time of the bus on site (only $1 round trip). There are shops on site to cool off, enjoy a smoothie, ice cream and and eat We had a very pleasant time with family.

Very good tour with super friendly guide.

We had a very nice tour guide (Dave) who was very helpful and accommodating throughout the day. We saw all the main sites but the day felt very relaxed at the same time. There were rest breaks/ toilet stops built in and everything was very well planned. There is nothing Dave doesn't know about the island and the lunch made was very nice: 2 sausages, rice, salad and juice. We got to see a wild koala, kangaroos, humpback whales and lots of different birds in beautiful surroundings. Thank you for a great day and I would definitely recommend this tour!!!

Paradise found

Absolutely brilliant day sightseeing "off the beaten track". Dave took me to all the places I wanted to see but couldn't get to because I didn't own a 4WD. Great vego lunch, informative, friendly guide with great stories & scenery was breathtaking. I didn't want to leave the keyhole water hole

Yes and thank you for all the wonderful memories of the day on "Straddie". I will say that the water is a lot warmer in the summer months and that id when it is hard to get me out of the water! Take care.

Great fun and lovely day

Had an excellent time with Barefoot Dave on Sunday. He’s so nice and we saw so many lovely things. Highlights were the Brown Lake and the swim at Flinders Beach, which was pristine and perfect. Dave was funny and informative. Highly recommend.

Operator response

Yes it was the "Perfect" day to get out and enjoy what the Island provides. Hope to see you back on Straddie to enjoy it again. Keep safe.

The perfect day

Stradbroke Island is beautiful and Barefoot Dave was an excellent tour guide and cook! It was a perfect day exploring the island - we never felt rushed to our next stop - and loved all the knowledge Dave had to share. Our traditional Aussie BBQ lunch Dave prepared was delicious! And the damper with jam and tea was perfect! The whale sightings from the beach were a special treat! One of our best days in Australia!

Operator response

Thank you Elizabeth for making the day happen and I hope you experience more days like it. Travel safe and until next time take care.

Our family had a wonderful day on Stradbroke island. Dave was a great guide and an excellent driver and chief. We got to see all the animals we had hoped for and the kids loved the swim in Brown lake.

Must do Aussie experience!

What a great day! Dave is such a charming character. The 4WDriving especially off road was loads of fun. Learnt a lot about the fauna and local animals, as well as history. Dave's super knowledgeable. Enjoyed some beautiful scenery, good laughs and a true blue Aussie experience. We had some delicious home made damper (made by Dave) with delicious tea. Lunch was an outdoor BBQ of sausages with rice and salad. The day flew! Highly recommended
