Seaway Kayaking Tours: Biggera Waters

If you’re looking for a fresh way to experience the Gold Coast beyond its famous beaches, Seaway Kayaking Tours in Biggera Waters offers the perfect escape. Paddling through calm waterways, spotting wildlife, and exploring secluded islands—this is an adventure that combines relaxation, exploration, and natural beauty.

Whether you’re a first-time kayaker or a seasoned paddler, Seaway Kayaking Tours gives you the chance to immerse yourself in the Gold Coast Seaway’s pristine waters while uncovering hidden gems along the way.

Discover the Wonders of the Waterway

  • Scenic Kayaking Excursions: Kayaking gives you a completely different perspective of the Gold Coast. You’ll paddle past sandy beaches, quiet coves, and scenic shorelines that are inaccessible by land. It’s peaceful, picturesque, and the perfect way to slow down and enjoy nature.
  • Marine Wildlife Encounters: The Broadwater is a vibrant hub of marine life. Keep an eye out for dolphins, sea turtles, and stingrays in their natural habitat. Tip: The guides often have local knowledge on the best spots and times for wildlife encounters.
  • Expertly Guided Tours: Every tour is led by experienced local guides who provide a full safety induction and fascinating insights into the region’s history, wildlife, and ecosystems. You can simply relax, paddle, and enjoy the journey knowing you’re in capable hands.

Travel Tip – Combine Your Tour with a Car Hire

A Gold Coast Airport car rental makes it easy to explore beyond your kayak launch point. After an invigorating paddle, you’ll have the flexibility to go for a scenic coastal drive or head into the hinterland.

Hiring a car from Alpha Car Hire Gold Coast Airport means you can:

  • Conveniently Transport Gear: Easily carry your gear and personal items to and from the launch point. For larger groups, consider booking a People Mover or a minivan for extra convenience.
  • Secure Valuables: Keep your valuables locked safely in your rental car while you are on the water.
  • Explore Further: After your tour, you can visit other parts of the Broadwater or stop by a nearby cafe for a well-earned meal.

For those flying into the Gold Coast, Alpha Car Hire’s complimentary shuttle bus service will take you from the airport terminal directly to your rental car, making your journey from plane to paddle as seamless as possible.
