Don’t miss this when you’re in Noosa!

An awesome thing to do when you are in Noosa. Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable about the area and its natural history. We saw loads of stingrays and the pace was perfect, never felt rushed. Kayaking through the everglades is beautiful could not recommend more!
