What To Expect
Bribie Island National Park
1. Immersive Nature Experience Bribie Island is home to some of Australia’s most stunning natural landscapes. The opportunity to explore beautiful beaches, serene lagoons, and rich wildlife habitats makes this tour a must for nature enthusiasts. Whether you’re kayaking through the tranquil waters or spotting dolphins along the coast, each moment is a celebration of Australia’s wild beauty. 2. Historical Exploration History lovers will relish the chance to visit the WWII bunkers and learn about Australia’s role in the global conflict. The bunkers are not only fascinating relics but also serve as poignant reminders of the past, providing a unique educational experience. 3. Thrilling Outdoor Adventure The 4WD beach drive offers excitement and unparalleled views of the coastline. Combine this with the peaceful yet adventurous kayak journey, and you have an action-packed day of outdoor activities that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime.
Guides provide fascinating narratives about the bunkers’ construction, usage, and their role in Australia’s defense during the 1940s. The echoes of history resonate through these aging concrete structures, as the ocean, now slowly reclaiming them, adds to the bittersweet feeling of witnessing history slip away. Make sure to explore these landmarks while you can—these relics are gradually being eroded by the forces of nature.

5.00My friend and I did the Bunker Tour with Jason. Very knowledgeable about the area and the events of the remaining bunkers that have survived years of weather. Lagoons were lovely to see and it helped it was a beautiful day.
Unexpected wild side few see

5.00My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed the Bribie Island 4WD, Kayak, Beach & Bunker Tour. Much of Bribie Island -- accessed via bridge, little more than 1 hour north of Brisbane -- is accessible only by 4WD. While a regular visitor since childhood 50 years ago, this wilderness with its lakes and vast untouched beach was unknown to me. Our tour guide, Jason is a real local and his love of this island was evident. He was friendly and knowledgeable – explaining aspects of natural history, and cultural history I’d not heard of. Highly recommend the tour for a real wildlife experience that’s off the beaten track.

Bribie Island Experience

5.00If your in QLD, Bribie Island is definitely worth a visit. G’day Adventure Tours with Jason took us on an amazing guided tour of Bribie Island. We travelled by 4WD down to the beach, then stopped at a beautiful lagoon where the tour continued by kayak. The water was tranquil and incredibly easy to paddle on — the kayaking was definitely the highlight of the day. Jason was extremely knowledgeable about the island and had a keen eye for spotting wildlife along the way. After kayaking, we visited the WWII bunkers, where Jason brought history to life with engaging stories about why the bunkers were built and how they would have been used if the Japanese had invaded Australia. A fantastic experience from start to finish — informative, relaxed, and fun. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Bribie Island in a unique way

5.00My husband and I joined Jason on this fantastic tour. His knowledge and enthusiasm made it a great day out. The kayaking through the Lagoon was like being in a different world. The wildlife encounters on the beach were many: kangaroos and wallabies everywhere, and a wide diversity of birdlife. We were fortunate that we spotted the sea eagle several times and a lucky escaped mudcrab out of its enormous claws. We left the island with a world of knowledge, and we're grateful we spotted many hidden gems of this beautiful place. Highly recommend this tour to all nature lovers.
