OzFoiling’s Efoil Tours offer a pulse-quickening chance to skim the water around Newry Island, located just off the coast of Urunga, New South Wales. This guided 1.5-hour ride covers 16 kilometers across calm waterways, delivering a fresh perspective on this coastal region best suited for experienced efoilers ready to elevate their adventure far beyond a typical paddle or surf session.
Newry Island’s surrounding waters are known for their tranquility and scenic variety, featuring stretches of clear ocean meeting river estuaries, mangroves, and stretches of native coastal forest. The island itself, with its untouched shoreline and pockets of diverse wildlife, creates a visually striking backdrop rarely experienced from a board-wing hybrid that blends speed and silence. Riders glide just above the water’s surface, propelled by electric hydrofoil technology—giving the sensation of flying over the sea.
OzFoiling has established itself as a local leader in efoil guiding, capitalizing on Urunga’s unique geography where calm conditions are frequent enough to enable consistent tours. The company’s tours provide not only an exhilarating ride but also access to parts of Newry Island’s natural environment that are otherwise tough to reach. With options extending beyond Newry Island—covering river routes like Bellingen and Nambucca Rivers—OzFoiling situates itself as a standout for hydrofoil travel in the region.
What makes these tours especially unique is the focus on advanced riders; this isn’t a beginner lesson but a chance to push skills and enjoy the water in an entirely new way. Newry Island’s sheltered bays and gentle sea conditions are perfect for those who want a thrilling yet contemplative journey through one of NSW’s quieter coastal corners. For anyone with prior efoil experience seeking fresh terrain and a smooth, fast track through coastal Australia’s waters, OzFoiling’s offering is a rare find.
