This is a private tour ! These ‘jewels of Moreton Bay’ are known for their natural beauty, peaceful lifestyle and fascinating histories. They are also home to a vibrant arts community with many local artists drawing inspiration from their idyllic surroundings. Each of the islands are different and have their own energy and vibe. I want visitors to see the nature, to meet some of the local artists, and to experience each of the islands.

Exclusions: Ferry cost from and to Redland Bay is NOT INCLUDED in tour price. Visitors to pay via Go-card/cash.
