Gold Coast Paddlesports

This half day adventure will allow you to experience the Gold Coast's cultural heritage, a subtropical forest hike with majestic city and coastal views, a Kayak Eco Tour along pristine calm water, and a visit to check out some Aussie animals at a heritage listed Wildlife Park. Tour 1: Start your day being greeted at Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre by your Indigenous Guide, then set off on an awesome hike through Burleigh Heads National Park via lush subtropical bushland and epic views. Your Guide will provide you with insight on the rich history and cultural significance of this sacred land, as well as introduce you to some 'Bush Tucker' and stories from 'The Dreamtime'. Tour 2: After some morning tea, time to burn off some calories and embark on a mini adventure, kayaking through Tallebudgera Creek. Despite it's central location, 'Tally Creek' still remains relatively untouched and favours us by providing pristine turquoise waters surrounded by lush bushland and mangroves. The paddle is easy going on calm and shallow waters and we'll break for a swim on a small island along the way. Tour 3: We'll arrive by kayak to the small but unique David Fleay Wildlife Park where you'll have the chance to meet some Aussie wildlife such as crocodiles, koalas, kangaroos, emus, dingoes and their resident platypus 'Wally'. Stroll through their natural habitat whilst exploring and if timing allows, join the Rangers in one of their daily wildlife shows.
