Discover the Hidden Beauty of the Maroochy River on an Exciting 55km Guided Jet Ski Safari


Venture into the heart of the Sunshine Coast on an expansive 55km River Safari that showcases the true beauty and diversity of the Maroochy River. The journey begins at our office along the tranquil inside of Chambers Island, where you will start with a few relaxed laps of our circuit. This initial phase helps you get comfortable with your jet ski, ensuring you feel confident and ready to navigate the river's winding paths and open stretches.


From there, we head downstream past Twin Waters toward the river mouth, where pristine riverfront beaches and sandbars provide the perfect spots to pause and take in the wide coastal views. The river becomes increasingly secluded as we pass Coolum Creek, gliding through dense mangrove forests teeming with life. Keep an eye out for fish jumping beneath the surface and birds like ospreys, herons, and sea eagles soaring above, highlighting the rich biodiversity of this coastal ecosystem.


The landscape opens up again near the majestic Dunethin Rock, offering stunning river views and a fascinating glimpse into the region’s geological past. As we approach the turnaround point just before Yandina, the river becomes beautifully quiet, framed by forested banks and distant mountain silhouettes. Throughout the journey, the iconic Mount Coolum and Mount Ninderry appear, effectively linking the coast to the hinterland and providing a breathtaking backdrop for your high-speed adventure on the water.


This safari is designed for those who appreciate both the thrill of jet skiing and the serenity of nature. By combining high-speed sections with moments of quiet observation, the tour offers a comprehensive look at the Sunshine Coast's natural wonders. Whether you are a local or a visitor, this 55km journey provides a unique perspective on the river, leaving you with a deep appreciation for the region's diverse landscapes and the peaceful atmosphere of the hinterland.

We did the Kilkenny, Wicklow Mountains & Glendalough tour today with Wild Rover Tours, and we enjoyed it so much! Our favorite part was the sheep farm - watching the sheepdog Spot gather the sheep was amazing and really fun to see. Our guide John was outstanding. He has a great sense of humor, explained everything clearly, and made the whole day interesting. He also had a very personal approach to each of us. And our driver Pete did an incredible job on the Irish roads - so smooth and confident, it was impressive. Thank you for a wonderful day! We would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Our trip with Wild Rover Tours to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway City was great and I would recommend it to anybody. JP our driver was quiet but Dave our guide made up for it. Dave was entertaining and gave us a good bit of information and history all along the way and JP got us around timely and safely. A special shout out to Stephen for getting me out of a pickle!

A wonderful day trip to visit Belfast, Dunluce Castle & Giant’s Causeway. Dave’s energy and enthusiasm made the trip extra fun and I appreciate how timely and organized everything was. We had enough time to truly enjoy all of the sights and the didn’t feel rushed at all. I love that the playlist had special meanings and connected well to the tour as well. Shoutout to Billy for the safe and smooth driving. Finally, big extra love to Dave for being so kind and having the entire bus celebrate my birthday and play a special birthday song for me. I travel often, and have done a lot of tours in the past, and this one truly exceeded all expectations and has topped them all. Thank you!
