On the North Stradbroke Island Tour, migrating whales can be spotted from June to October, along with dolphins and turtles all year round. The island enjoys spectacular ocean views and has a rich history. It is home to many talented artists, a few of which we will visit when we arrive at Dunwich. On our way to Point Lookout, we will stop at Myora Springs; a small creek leading into the surrounding mangroves. In Point Lookout, we enjoy the spectacular coastal views on the North Gorge Walk. North Stradbroke Island has beautiful beaches. It will be difficult to choose one for the stroll after lunch. Brown Lake gets its name from the colour of the water. The clear tea colour comes from the surrounding tea trees and reeds. The natural bushland surrounding the lake is home to many delicate flowers. Here we will have afternoon tea or a refreshing swim before we head back to the mainland. You will leave this beautiful tropical island with a lot of wonderful memories.
