Tangalooma Snorkel Tour
Tangalooma Snorkel Tour
Embark on an unforgettable 5-hour jet ski adventure from Breakfast Creek, Newstead, to the breathtaking turquoise waters of Tangalooma. This immersive journey blends high-speed excitement with serene underwater exploration, revealing the beauty of Moreton Bay and the magic of the iconic Tangalooma Wrecks.
Your tour begins on the Brisbane River, where the city skyline gradually fades and the open expanse of the bay unfolds before you. Along the way, enjoy a brief rest stop at Mud Island—your chance to rehydrate and take in the scenery before continuing toward the island’s crystal-clear shallows. As the water shifts to striking shades of blue, the silhouette of the Tangalooma Wrecks emerges ahead, signalling the start of your underwater adventure.
From adrenaline-fuelled riding to tranquil snorkelling, this tour offers a perfect balance of exploration, marine encounters, and relaxation.
Scenic Bay Journey: Travel from the Brisbane River into the open waterways of Moreton Bay, with a short stop at Mud Island to rest and prepare for the crossing ahead.
Underwater Exploration: Dive into the vibrant world of the Tangalooma Wrecks, where tropical fish, turtles, dugongs, and colourful coral thrive among the historic structures.
Marine Encounters: Spot diverse marine life as you snorkel—and from July to September, enjoy the chance to witness humpback whales breaching offshore.
Beachside Relaxation: Unwind on the stunning Tangalooma beachfront with a fresh wrap and fruit cup, soaking up the sunshine and the island’s peaceful atmosphere.
