STRADBROKE ISLAND (Minjerribah) INDIGENOUS FISHING

A truly special and unique experience.

Stradbroke Island, just off the coast of Brisbane is home to the Quandamooka people. The Quandamooka have lived in the area for tens of thousands of years. Villages existed around the coastal areas and islands and campsites could be found wherever there was freshwater from creeks or water holes.

This brand-new Aboriginal Fishing Experience will involve flying in on your private helicopter for a full-day or half-day, with a focus on fishing and bait collection on the surf beaches of Minjerribah. Learn to fish, cook and flavour your catch with bush-tucker using traditional methods taught by a Quandamooka fishing guide.

INDIGENOUS TOURS

Experience The Quandamooka Coast.

From a unique vantage point, experience The Quandamooka Coast.

The Quandamooka Peoples have lived on Minjerribah (now known as North Stradbroke Island) for a very long time.  Scientists say at least 25 000 years. 

There are three clans that comprise the Peoples of the Quandamooka. They are the Nughi of Moorgumpin (now known as Moreton Island) and the Nunukul and Gorenpul of Minjerribah.

The Traditional Owners hold their heads high with a strong identity and culture.

Immerse yourself in the Quandamooka Peoples’ culture exploring the Quandamooka Coast by air and land leaving only footprints behind.

Experience Traditional Aboriginal welcome to country, dance, stories, and traditional arts. Then dine on a native-inspired menu prepared by local Quandamooka chefs.

This is a truly unique experience not to be missed.

ISLAND GETAWAYS

Gotta Getaway!

Imagine spending the day kicking back on a beautiful tropical island or treating yourself to a gourmet picnic on a remote deserted beach.

Queensland has some of the most amazing islands located only a stone’s throw from our beautiful city of Brisbane.

South and North Stradbroke, located on the Southern end of Morten Bay, have a number of resorts and landing places available. A great place for one of our Gourmet Picnics.

Moreton Island is another favourite with attractions like Tangalooma Island Resort, The Gutter Bar and a multitude of vibrant wildlife. We can almost guarantee you will see dolphins, dugong and turtles.

The jewel in the crown is the amazing Fraser Island, the worlds largest sand island. Normally too far away for a day trip, our helicopters make Fraser a feasible option. We can even organise guided tours and overnight stays if required.

We have a number of tours available to suit a multitude of budgets. Give us a call today for a quote.
