📍Moreton Island tour by See Moreton 1.5hrs from the Rivergate Marina, onboard the Migaloo II, and we arrived at the stunning Tangalooma wrecks. The weather was perfect and our trip across Moreton Bay was very smooth. Passengers on the boat were divided into two groups and we were in the “Dolphin” group which meant we went snorkelling first while the other group ate lunch. 🐬 Before we even dropped anchor we came across a pod of dolphins and stopped to watch them. One even came over to the boat to show off a bit. 🤿 We spent 45mins snorkelling the wrecks where there is an abundance of beautiful sea life. ✨ Tip: get in the water first to ensure you have the most time snorkelling. 🍽 Once aboard we had a lovely buffet lunch. It included adequate options for everyone. Hello fresh prawns! 😋 🏖 We then had about an hour of beach time where the water is so crystal clear and beautiful. This is the time to do what you want: go for a walk, swim or use one of the courtesy kayaks. 🐢 Before departing the island we spotted a few turtles and watched and waited for them to come up for a breath. 🌻 The captain and crew were fantastic and friendly. 🔹 All in all a great family day out. We even got the teenager to come...

We took our own snorkel gear. Hired a see-through 2 person kayak for an hr so we could see a bit more of the wrecks. Very strong current, so unless you are a strong swimmer, don't do it without a guide or kayak. They have a lot of extra activities, such as Segway on sand, 4 wheeler sand bikes, guided kyak and snorkel tours, helicopter joy flights and a whole lot more. Beautiful beach with pristine sand. It was such a great day trip, and I can't wait to go back with the...
Read moreWe set of at dawn from Manly, Qld for a day of the best bay experience ever 🌊
Our first morning stop was the middle of Moreton Bay to take-in the sunrise 🌞
Next we did some fishing 🎣
Followed by a stop at the Tangalooma camp site for the most gorgeous BBQ lunch. A simple gas cooker, some 🌭🧀🍞 in the most gorgeous setting on the sand, under the shade of the trees 🌳 taking in the view of the beautiful, clear, blue water of the Island. We walked to the sand dunes and I was in awe of how vast, silent and pristine white the sand was. As it was an off-peak week day, it was awesome to just have the two of us sitting in this wide open space taking in what mother nature creates.
We then made our way to the ship wrecks at the resort, which were a mix of interesting, disturbing litter and of purpose to conservation, however captivating at the same time.
We truly live in such an awesome part of the world 🌎 which I never, ever take...
