Experience Tangalooma Island Resort

If you are looking for one of life's most ethereal experiences, you don't have to look much further than Tangalooma Island Resort in Moreton Island, located just over an hour from Brisbane by ferry.

The perfect holiday destination for all ages, this family owned and run resort is nature's theme park with a spectacular selection of land and sea-based activities, waterfront accommodation and unforgettable day trips available to explore. 

What was once a cherished holiday destination for the Osborne family in the 1970s, became a home in the 80s when the resort became available to purchase. Brian and Betty Osborne jumped at the chance to buy it, and now, two decades on the resort remains in the family with two of Brian and Betty's children now at the helm. 

The resort not only offers white sandy beaches overlooking crystal clear waters but also gives visitors the chance to interact with native wildlife in their natural environment. Experience the giants of the sea up close and personal at Brisbane's best whale watching cruise, snorkel the Tangalooma wrecks or hand feed a pod of wild dolphins -  hands down one of life's most unique experiences. 

With various beachfront accommodation styles available, there is something for group size and budget, from hotel rooms and units to villas and apartments, each set amid lush landscaped gardens with ocean views. 

But you don’t even need to stay overnight! You can experience the very best of Moreton Island and Tangalooma in a day with Tangalooma Island Resort’s fantastic selection of day trips. Jump on a return cruise and experience a relaxing day by the beach, head on a Whale Watching Cruise or Marine Discovery Cruise.

If you’re after something a bit more action packed you can explore the resort with a Snorkel the Wrecks Day Cruise, Quad Bike Cruise or Desert Safari Cruise.
