Escape and immerse yourself in this stunningly beautiful water-wilderness on a one day tour or overnight adventure, just minutes from Noosa. 

The pristine Noosa Everglades wilderness is a place of serene natural beauty, bursting with rare wildlife, and is, therefore, best experienced under paddle - leaving only little ripples behind you as you take time to drift gently through one of just two Everglades in the world.

The Kabi Aboriginal People once graced this special land, which stretches north from the white sandy beaches of Noosa towards the coloured sands of Rainbow Beach. 

Although you may feel like youâ€™re in a distant land, your adventure begins near Boreen Point, an easy 30-minute drive from Noosa and just 90 minutes from the hustle-bustle of Brisbane.

Multi-award winning Kanu Kapers promise to deliver a world-class sustainable experience and memories to last a lifetime. They look after the Noosa Everglades because they love it ... and they know you'll love it too.

The Noosa Everglades are one of only two Everglades in the world. For the ultimate in serene tranquility, the area is best explored on an eco-cruise or in a kayak. Marvel at the reflections of the flora on the banks of the water that appear like a mirage. There are banksias, tea trees, melaleucas, reeds and water lilies. Or spot some of the forty-four percent of Australian bird species that visit or live in the area from pelicans, ducks, cormorants, eagles or a rare jabiru.

Located 25 minutes north of Noosa, Habitat Noosa Everglades eco-camp is Queenslandâ€™s most exciting eco-tourism product. Their much-loved camping ground on 65 acres of natural bushland (previously known as Elanda Point Education Centre and Adventure Park) has undergone extensive revitalisation to provide onsite cabin, camping, motorhome and glamping accommodation, along with renovated amenities and watercraft hires. They even have their own bar and bistro cootharaBAR!

Ever met a kangaroo? Youâ€™re likely to at Habitat Noosa, where a sizeable population of eastern grey roos bounces through the natural bushland at Habitat Noosa.

On the shores of Lake Cootharaba, just under half an hourâ€™s drive from the beaches and amenities of Noosa, this spacious site in the Great Sandy National Park combines wildlife days with comfortable stays. If you donâ€™t fancy a bushtucker diet, the onsite bar and bistro have fresh and locally-sourced sustenance instead and for breakfast bites, elevenses and all the other in-between times, you can enjoy barista made coffee and extensive menu made by onsite chefs.  Sit down and relax whilst watching the kangaroos.
