Ready for the experience of a lifetime? Come on our Kayak Turtle Tour. Tours operate daily from the south end of Palm Cove and paddle out to Double Island from there. Once we are at Double Island, it's an incredible experience. There are mangroves to explore, coral reefs to paddle over and even a cave to explore if the conditions are right. More often than not, the water is crystal clear. There is an abundance of small rays and turtles swimming through the water, and it's even possible to see dolphins, dugongs or whales on the tour, but you have to be very lucky. Kayaks, life jackets, juice, water and fruit is provided.

What To Expect
Departing from Palm Cove, we paddle our way over to the coral reefs that fringe Double Island and Haycock Island (Scouts Hat). The first stop is our turtle spot. This is the place where the green turtle and the hawksbill turtle can be seen basking in the ocean. More often than not we have numerous turtle sightings. This is an exciting part of the trip for all of our customers. From here on, we either travel to the north side of the island or we move in to the south side and explore the mangroves, depending on what the tides are doing and the wind direction. Its not uncommon to see many rays and shovel nosed sharks playing and feeding in the shallows along the tidal part of the beach. If we venture to the north side of the island and with a low tide, we will check out the lime stone cave. When the tide is right, we go right inside the cave. Here we find small stalactites hanging from the roof of the cave. Next stop is the beach for a swim and relax. Snorkeling equipment will be provided, so if anyone feels like a snorkel, you are more than welcome to give it a go. After all this, its time to head home. If the northerly wind kicks in, we head back to Palm Cove.

5.00We had a great time on the kayak tour. We saw a few turtles they went back under water fairly quickly again but we also loved swimming on the island and going in a small cave on the island also.
Excellent hosts

5.00Had an amazing morning kayaking out to Double Island. Andrew was a fantastic host, lovely guy and knew the best spots to see some turtles. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. As it’s only a half day activity there was still time to explore Palm Cove and have lunch nearby. Don’t forget to bring your water and snacks!!
Worth the early morning start.

4.00Early morning start to see a wonderful sunrise. Only saw a couple of small turtles in the distance but still a good experience. As a first time kayaker I didn’t find it too hard.
