Bribie Island Hire Hut & Tours

We are fortunate to operate in a magnificient part of the world with Moreton Bay marine park and the Pumicestone passage literally at our doorstep with dolphins, dugongs, turtles and abundant birdlife. We give visitors and locals alike the opportunity to experience this diverse eco system first hand by hiring kayaks and standup paddle boards to get out on the water. We also offer guided kayak tours and instruction for 'first timers'. For the young family and "leisure" seeker we also hire pedal boats. For those who prefer to observe from the land and maybe try something new, we offer guided segway tours along the foreshores of the Pumicestone Passage (instruction included). We want it to be fun, so we also give you some free time to challenge yourself with your new skills - try your segway through the tree maze or over the sand traps. Another great way to explore is by bike. We have single and tandem electric bikes, power gliders and more.
