What to expect
You'll board a quirky six-wheeled amphibious vehicle and spend an hour rolling through Mooloolaba's coastal streets before splashing into the canal systems. The skipper provides running commentary on regional history, local wildlife and how the area developed. The ride's smooth on land but expect a gentle water descent when transitioning to the waterways. Kids genuinely get hands-on control of the vehicle at designated moments, which is the highlight for many families. Bring cameras—the sightlines from the open-air seating make for good shots.
