What to expect
You'll depart daily from Brisbane aboard the Spirit of Mulgumpin, a large luxury catamaran. After complimentary coffee, tea and cake upon boarding, the vessel heads out to Moreton Bay Marine Park for a guided marine discovery cruise where you'll watch for dolphins, dugongs and turtles. You'll then join a guided snorkel tour at the Tangalooma Wrecks and take part in a fish feeding session. The day balances structured activities with free time—you can paddle board, explore the beach, or relax onboard with the bar.
Lunch is served as a tropical buffet featuring prawns and other fare. You're free to pace the day as you like: join every activity, spend hours on the beach, or stay aboard. The return journey to Brisbane completes the 11-hour outing, and you'll be dropped back at your selected Gold Coast hotel.

Good to know
This works best for anyone who wants a full-day island experience without planning separate activities or worrying about meal costs—everything's included except alcoholic drinks. The cruise suits all fitness levels, though it's not advised for people with poor cardiovascular health. The catamaran is large and stable, which helps in rougher seas, but Moreton Bay can be choppy depending on weather. Transfers are included from selected Gold Coast hotels only, so check your accommodation is on the pickup list. Peak times are school holidays and weekends; quieter days are mid-week. The experience is family-friendly and service animals are welcome.
