Choosing an Animal Encounter

From Brisbane's Eastern Suburbs & Bayside, the wildlife experience listed is a full day on the water. See Moreton leaves Rivergate Marina in Murarrie and crosses Moreton Bay to Moreton Island (Mulgumpin) on the catamaran Spirit of Mulgumpin.

Questions to ask before booking a See Moreton group day:

  • Is everyone happy with a full day? Check-in opens at 9am and the boat is back at around 5pm.
  • Who wants to swim? Guided snorkelling over the Tangalooma Wrecks comes with mask, snorkel, wetsuit and flotation vest.
  • What about the non-swimmers? Free time on the sand covers beach games, fish feeding and stand-up paddleboarding.
  • How many are coming? Bookings of ten or more are handled as group bookings.
  • What is the budget? Prices start from $269 per person, and the day includes a tropical buffet lunch.

Dolphins, dugongs and sea turtles are the hope on the marine discovery cruise, though sightings are never promised.
