Overview

This tour rides a jet ski from Newstead all the way out to Kooringal on Moreton Island and back. You launch from 194 Breakfast Creek Road, follow the Brisbane River down into Moreton Bay, and watch the city skyline give way to sandbanks, mangroves and open water.

The halfway point is the real draw for many riders. At Kooringal you stop at the Gutter Bar, where lunch is included, and when weather and tides cooperate there is time for a swim or a walk on the sandbars before the return run to Brisbane.

No licence is required, and full safety briefings and on-water support are provided. A second rider can share your jet ski at no extra cost, which makes it workable for families with children aged seven and up, as long as the driver is 16 or over with photo ID. Routes and stops flex with the conditions, and wildlife sightings are never promised.

Common issues. The main constraint is the weather, since routes, stops and the swim break all depend on conditions on the day, and operator cancellations for weather come with a full refund. There is no hotel pickup, so travellers need to make their own way to Breakfast Creek Road half an hour early. Alcohol and drugs are not allowed, and riders must understand English for the safety briefing. Anyone with a medical condition or mobility and accessibility needs should contact the operator before booking for an individual assessment. Pricing is per ski rather than per person, which can catch people out when booking multiple skis.
