About this tour

What to expect

You'll launch from Caloundra into the Pumicestone Passage, a protected strip of water that shields you from open ocean conditions. The passage is shallow enough to see through to seabed life—flathead, rays, and seasonal dolphins turn up regularly. Boards are buoyant and forgiving if you're learning. You navigate at your own pace; most paddle for an hour, then either drift, swim, or beach yourself on sand banks. Weather and tidal shifts are mild here, but the rental team will brief you on current direction and wind behaviour before you launch.

Good to know

Not suitable if you have spinal injuries or significant heart conditions. All fitness levels welcome. Learner boards float high, so stability isn't an issue. Bring water and sunscreen. Peak season crowds ease mid-week mornings.
