4 hours to 1 day
This is a full-day, high-intensity jetski tour from the Gold Coast to Tangalooma, covering around 230km in one day. It is pitched as an extreme adventure rather than a casual sightseeing ride, so it suits confident travellers with a high level of fitness who want a serious day on the water. You’ll ride a modern Sea-Doo jetski with a professional guide, with safety gear, goggles, fees and taxes included. Along the way, there’s the chance to spot marine life including dolphins, whales, turtles, dugongs, sting rays, manta rays and other fish.
Why backpackers love it
If you are after a big-ticket adventure rather than a standard tour, this stands out for the sheer distance covered and the chance to see a lot of coastline in one day. Having the guide, jetski, lifejacket and goggles included makes the logistics simpler than organising something similar yourself. It is not a budget option, and it is definitely not for everyone, but for travellers wanting a full-send day on the water, it delivers something more intense than the usual short jetski session.
Expect a long, physically demanding day with plenty of time on the jetski as you travel from the Gold Coast up to Tangalooma and back. The route includes a mix of well-known spots and lesser-known areas selected by the guides. Wildlife sightings can happen during the trip, but they are never guaranteed. Dress for the weather and come prepared for exposure to sun and wind, with sunscreen and long sleeves strongly recommended. This tour is not recommended for pregnant travellers or anyone with spinal injuries, poor cardiovascular health, or lower fitness levels.
