Located at 204 Lake Flat Road, Boreen Point in Queensland, Australia, Everglades Eco Safaris offers an unforgettable adventure through the Noosa Everglades—Australia’s only Everglades ecosystem. This distinct sub-tropical wetland area stretches with reflective waterways flanked by ancient rainforests, creating a rare wilderness experience unlike any other in the country.
The Everglades Explorer Tour invites outdoor enthusiasts to navigate these shimmering rivers either by serene canoe or aboard a comfortable, eco-conscious cruise vessel guided by knowledgeable local experts. Both options culminate at the historic Harry’s Hut, an early 1900s logger’s camp that anchors this journey with a tangible sense of history.
Paddling a canoe here is a unique way to connect directly with the shimmering surfaces and quiet banks, where towering paperbark trees, water lilies, and a variety of native birds create a visually striking and tranquil environment. For those wanting to relax and absorb detailed insights, the guided cruise offers expert commentary on this ancient landscape, its flora, fauna, and significance.
The tour includes gentle walks through lush rainforest at Fig Tree Point, morning tea by the water, and the chance to spot wildlife such as elusive platypus and colorful kingfishers. This experience stands apart because it combines low-impact adventure with eco-education set in a protected national park space.
Everglades Eco Safaris operates with a strong focus on sustainability and respect for the fragile ecosystem, making it a standout in the local outdoor recreation scene.
