Surfing at Double Island Point

Awesome day with Vince and Yiannis. Always wanted to explore the Cooloola National Park and this was a great exposure to it without having to do the 4WD myself. Surfing at Double Island Point was a highlight, as was Vince’s encyclopedic knowledge of snakes!

Operator response

Thank you so much for sharing this! We love hearing that you finally got to experience Cooloola National Park and explore it without having to tackle the 4WD adventure yourself. We’re especially glad surfing at Double Island Point was a highlight. And as for Vince’s snake knowledge, it sounds like you got the full wildlife commentary as well! We’ll definitely pass that on to him. Thanks for adventuring with us and for sharing such a great snapshot of your day. We hope there’s another Cooloola adventure in your future!

Brilliant trip, expert guided, family friendly, incredible location

The Double Island Point kayak tour led by the amazing Seb was brilliant. A Monday out of tourist season on the edge of spring is a great time to do it - beach almost all to ourselves, the big lagoon totally to ourselves. Like it used to be before everyone owned a 4WD. Comfortable bus, skilled driving, making some tricky soft sand crossings seem simple. With a child who has not kayaked before and is not a skilled swimmer we skipped the guiding ocean kayak part and instead we got dropped at the giant lagoon (hundreds of metres long and way over 2m deep) to kayak there, explore on our own, walk across to the surf, look for rays and fish. Like being on a deserted island. Where the lagoon meets the sea the moving water is crystal clear and great for swimming or floating. Amazing trip. If a Frazer Island day tour seem too long, this one is a similar experience at only 6 ish hours and from Noosa instead of Rainbow Beach which is so much simpler. Highly recommended.

Operator response

Thank you so much for taking the time to share all of this! It’s wonderful to hear that Seb helped make the day such a memorable one for your family. Having Double Island Point and the lagoon feeling like your own little slice of paradise is pretty special, and we’re so glad you could enjoy it at your own pace. We also love hearing that the lagoon option worked so well for your child and gave you all the chance to explore, kayak and enjoy the area together. We’ll make sure Seb sees your kind words — and thank you so much for recommending us!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review! We’re thrilled you had such a special day out with Seb and got to experience Double Island Point at its quieter, more wild and wonderful best. It’s fantastic to hear the lagoon worked so well for your family and that you could take your time kayaking, exploring and enjoying the beach together. Those moments when you feel like you’ve got the whole place to yourself really are hard to beat. We’ll make sure Seb sees your kind words and thank you for the recommendation!

EPIC!

Absolutely EPIC! like the name. My mate and I just joined the tour from Noosa to Double Island Point. It was incredible. Pick-up was on time and clear instructions given. The tour ran very smooth. Kevin our driver and guide was very informative and funny. Kevin pointed out wildlife and gave us loads of information about the National Park and its flora and fauna. He was more than happy to answer our silly questions 😜. We didn't join the kayak tour, instead we did the walking track to Lighthouse. We saw lots of whales. We were lucky to see a whale mother and her baby and a large pod of dolphins, roaming close to the cliff. We recommend visitors join this tour when in Noosa.

Operator response

Thank you so much for such an amazing review, Riky! We loved reading about your day. It sounds like nature really put on a show for you, from the humpback mum and calf to the pod of dolphins near the cliffs. We're so pleased you enjoyed exploring Double Island Point and the lighthouse walk, and that Kevin helped make the journey both informative and entertaining. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to see you and your mate again for another Epic adventure!

A Stress‑Free, Scenic Tour with Exceptional Guides”

Although Double Island Point is close by, I’m not confident driving on the beach, and I didn’t want the hassle of transporting kayaks or the stress of navigating sand. This tour was the perfect solution. The scenery was incredible, but it’s the guides who truly make the experience. Thank you to JB and the whole team — you were fantastic. They were wonderful with every age group, went out of their way to look after everyone, and handled all the heavy lifting. The information they shared was interesting, and it’s clear they genuinely want you to enjoy yourself. I am so keen to book again.

Amazing day trip to Double Island Point for a surf trip.

Amazing day out with our guide Kevin and the loveliest little guide we’ve come across (Ellie -Owners daughter) Such a friendly and helpful team, day was so easy and everything we hoped for. Described by my wife as ‘One of the most beautiful place's I’ve ever been’. We took snacks as there is limited food provided (that is advertised). Loved the whole day and experience with a great tour team. 10/10.
