LOCAL ACTIVITES & ATTRACTIONS Explore the pristine, white sand beaches and clear waters across the bay at Moreton Island - Tangalooma. From June to November every year, humpback whales undertake a 10,000km annual migration from Antarctica to have a babymoon holiday along the Queensland coast. As the humpback whales make their way up the coast, they come in close to North Stradbroke Island and Moreton Island, making land-based whale watching from the lookouts possible – just bring binoculars for a closer look. Jump on the water with Brisbane Whale Watching from Redcliffe or the Tangalooma Whale Watch Cruises to see whales do their thing in the Moreton Bay Marine Park.

Please don't be alarmed by the occasional noise of bats or the plonk of a possum jumping from trees onto the roof. Its all part of the Aussie experience!
