Highlights
  • Everglades - The Noosa River system is unique as its entire upper catchment is protected in National Park. Throughout your cruise take the opportunity to observe and photograph the unique beauty of an everglades eco system. While viewing wildlife is never guaranteed on tour, many guests have spotted a variety of bird species and several kangaroos and goannas upon returning to Habitat.

discover an unspoiled part of Noosa - Australia’s Everglades. Pristine water full of life. Our Guide kept us consumed with the beauty of the place and the knowledge he shared was fantastic. I recommend this great half day tour to everyone!

At the end of the tour, maybe go for a walk around Habitat Noosa and maybe even spot a few of our local kangaroos before concluding a great afternoon in Australia’s only Everglades.

Additional Information

The Noosa River system is unique as its entire upper catchment is protected in National Park. Throughout the afternoon cruise take the opportunity to observe and photograph the spectacular mirrored waterways and unique eco system.

Australia’s Everglades are found in the Northern end of the Noosa River system, perched within the sand dunes of the Cooloola National Park. An untouched, pristine wilderness area awaits you….

Pure freshwater pulses out of the Cooloola Sandmass and filters through the tea tree infused ecosystem into this unique river system - creating the most spectacular reflections you will ever see.

Enjoy a complimentary glass of “Beer OR Bubbles” whilst gliding down the reflective waterways of Australia’s Everglades. Watch the stunning colour changes as the sun sets slowly over this magnificent wilderness area before returning to Habitat Noosa Everglades Eco Camp.

Noosa Everglades with eco safaris is awesome! - Absolute must do for those visiting Noosa. Very interesting and informative experience - and so different to the rest of the Sunshine Coast. Very comfortable boat. Habitat Noosa the campsite is really well appointed (you don't have to camp - but there is lovely food at the cafe and loads and loads of kangaroos!!) Pete the skipper and guide was absolutely brilliant - very much a local brought up in the everglades area - everything was very clear and well laid out - with good funny bits - and lots to see - the amazing reflections in the water, the bird life, we saw a koala - it was fabulous! Would definitely recommend it. Loved it.

Fun in the glades - Trip was great, we were able to still do this even in the rain. Not so many animals to view, but just was fun and informative

Amazing Ecosystem, a Privilege to Tour - I did not suspect the Noosa Everglades existed until I got to Noosa! The area is wonderful country - a fascinating ecosystem. The tour was good: slow-paced, well-informed, on a very suitable boat that allows a view of everything. The commentary could have been just little more systematic, although the crew were friendly and helpful.

An Everglade close to home - The mirror images in the water were so clear and amazing and the tour guide/ boat captain is very informative . Would like to do it again in Spring or summer when the water lillies are out and there is more bird life.

The Worst Customer Service - We booked the tour for a family of 5, including one kid, 2 adults and 2 senior, and chose courtesy bus pickup from Noosa Heads. Unfortunately, I was misled by an email message with the incorrect Google map location, hence went to the wrong pickup place and missed the bus. Then I rang Habitat Noosa and was told "I knew you guys hadn't turned up at the pickup location, our bus has left". So, I drove the family to the estate and spoke to the guy who's in charge of bus service, I said "you guys could have given me a call after knowing I missed the bus, what if I don't have a car? We would have missed the whole trip"; this is what he said to me "It is a problem with your phone, we have had 480 plus pickups and nobody else went to the wrong location. We are only responsible for running the shuttle bus, calling you is not my responsibility, it is all your fault!". Let's say it is 100% my fault for missing the bus, considering how much I paid for the trip, I believe I deserve better customer service than this. At least you could have called me and discussed alternative transport after knowing I have missed the bus. Instead, your service team members were arrogant and insulting. We have traveled around the world, this is the worst customer experience.
