Nature and adventure experience exploring the Noosa coast

I loved this tour❤️ It proved to be a great mix of nature watching and fun on the boat. We got to spend time with a pod of Dolphins and captain Brent was a great host sharing his deep love, knowledge and passion for the coast. The whole experience from booking with Min through to the tour was seamless and professionally executed. Highly recommended. I’ll be back!

Best day ever!

Absolutely amazing is the only way to describe it!! Brent was a brilliant guide, he told us so much about the peninsular on the way out, and once out at sea he found a huge pod of dolphins. He cut the engine and we stayed and watched them for about 15 minutes. It was truly magical! On the way back we stopped at various coves and beaches and Brent described their history and popularity today. We even saw a couple of turtles! A big thank you Brent for a fabulous trip!

Operator response

Thank you! We are very lucky to have something truly special - a beautifully natural location & amazing wildlife that we love to share with guests. Thanks for joining us. Cheers Brent & Min

Great Experience!

We had an incredible experience with Noosa Ocean Adventures! We were pleased to see such a large pod of dolphins swimming right beside us, and it was absolutely amazing to view Noosa National Park from the water. A special shoutout to Captain Brent, who was very knowledgeable and an excellent driver—he made the whole trip even more enjoyable and safe. It was truly a magical experience and such a thrill riding the waves at sea! We will definitely be back during whale season. Highly recommend!

Operator response

Thanks so much, we are so glad you enjoyed seeing the sights from the ocean. Every day is different & we love to share all that Noosa has to offer with guests. We appreciate the review & recommendation. Cheers Brent & Min

Excellent

Great 90inutes. Trent's local knowledge f the area and the ocean life was awesome. The swell wasn't the biggest but it still made the bar crossings exciting. Certainly a better way to go dolphin watching. Well be back for the whales later in the year.

Operator response

Thanks for the shout out! It's a great way to experience the beautiful coastline of Noosa National Park. The whales come so close to the coast - we can't wait to have you back again. Cheers Brent & Min

Incredible dolphin tour 🐬🌊🩵

We had the most amazing tour with Brent, we saw pods of dolphins (with little baby ones too!!) and went around the coastline of Noosa National Park. Brent was so knowledgable and friendly, telling us about all of the beautiful marine life and spots around the national park coastline. It was an incredible morning, this tour is an absolute must and we made such special memories 🐬

Operator response

Thanks Emily - it was great to have you on board with us. To see the dolphin in this beautiful location is very special. We are glad to help you make lasting memories. Cheers Brent & Min

Dolphins and Noosa park

Brent is an excellent guide and font of knowledge. He made the effort to ensure we saw two pods of dolphins and explain their behaviour patterns. He then took us on an exhilarating journey on the ocean.

Wow!

Wow, that was just absolutely brilliant! Brent was an amazing guide and we had the best time, it was so much fun and such a thrill. Would 100% recommend. You also get a great tour of Noosa, which is perfect if you’re short on time. Easily one of our favourite things we’ve done on the East Coast.

Operator response

Thank you Stella, we have a beautiful coastline to experience from the water. Yes, a great way to see this stunning location. Thanks for joining us. Cheers Brent & Min
