Animal Encounter byron bay

Step aboard and experience the Northern Rivers the way locals do, by water. These relaxed guided boat tours take you through some of the most beautiful and peaceful waterways in the region, where the pace slows down, wildlife is abundant and every bend in the river reveals something new. It is a chance to truly switch off, take in the scenery and enjoy an authentic day on the water.
Along the way we often see dolphins, birdlife and other marine life, and guests learn about the local environment, history and unique ecosystems that make this part of the world so special. With small groups and a flexible itinerary, every trip feels personal and unhurried.
There are plenty of opportunities to stop throughout the tour. We can pull up at sheltered spots with clear blue water for a swim, cruise into local country pubs or waterfront venues for a relaxed lunch, or stop at one of the many quiet sandy beaches along the river. For those who prefer a picnic style experience, we can beach the boat, enjoy lunch on the sand and even cast a line from the shore.
Each tour is tailored to the group on the day, making it ideal for families, couples or small groups who want to relax, explore and reconnect with nature in a truly memorable setting.
