Itinerary

We meet at Elanda Point in the National Park kayak launch site and we settle you into your kayak, showing you the map and teaching you all the basic skills for an enjoyable paddle across Lake Cootharaba to Kinaba. From here, you are free to explore where you want within the Noosa Everglades. Explore up the lesser-paddled waters of Kin Kin Creek or enjoy the company of the mighty Noosa River and weave in and out of the small islands which dot the northern reaches of Fig Tree Lake. Test your paddling stamina and head up to the iconic Harry’s Hut for a swim in the tea coloured waters, or perhaps you plan to use the kayak to get to a wilder bush walking track within the Cooloola Recreation Area. Your possibilities are endless!

Amazing day. Worth more than every penny

Published on Jun, 2024

Absolutely amazing day today. Lived here for 7 years and have only just found this little piece of paradise. The instructor was awesome gave a super detailed description of what to expect and how to navigate the rivers. Would recommend for anyone and everyone. Well worth the price.

A highlight of our trip to Noosa

Published on May, 2024

We have just returned from a brilliant day kayaking on the Noosa Everglades with Kanu Kapers. We opted for the self-guided tour which gave us the opportunity to relax, have our own space and enjoy the solitude of the area. This was a highlight of our time in Noosa and we would highly recommend it. Josh collected us on time from our hotel and took us to the departure point where we met Liesel, who gave us an excellent briefing on the route as well as the key landmarks to look out for on the way. She did a great job of making us feel confident for the day ahead. Josh and Liesel were both so friendly and helpful. We had no prior kayaking experiencing but were able to fully complete the route with some time to spare, having stopped for a snack at the ranger’s station and then again for a half hour lunch break. Kayaking across the lake at the beginning and end of the route takes a bit of patience and determination but we really enjoyed the element of challenge and feel it is do-able by anyone with a reasonable level of fitness. As soon as you reach the river, paddling becomes much easier so you get a bit of a break that way. You need to remember to bring all your food, water, sunscreen and a change of clothes as you will definitely get a bit soggy if the lake is choppy.

A Wonderful kayak adventure in the Everglades.

Published on Apr, 2024

My husband and I enjoyed our paddle up the narrows of the Noosa River to Harry’s camp. We loved the dense varied vegetation. We saw some colourful Kingfishers, and some water birds (Darters) and a goanna. We stopped to look at the information boards at the old Rangers station. We had great weather, not much wind so paddling was good heading back across the lake.

An incredible experience - must try!

Published on Jan, 2024

An amazing journey through the Noosa Everglades - one of just two Everglades in the whole world! The brief and introduction to kayaking was clear and to the point from our guide and soon we were off in our kayak to explore at our own will! Note this is a strenuous activity so be prepared to kayak for the full 4-5 hour slot depending on how far you want to get! An incredible experience and one of our highlights of the trip!

Awesome day out!

Published on Jan, 2024

Amazing day out with Kanu Kapers. We did the self guided tour and saw the beautiful Noosa Everglades up close. Instruction and briefing was thorough and very well done, equipment is good (Sea to Summit!) and the expedition kayaks were in great condition and easy to handle. Highly recommend!
