Noosa Everglades

Jump on a kayak or a boat and sail down the amazing Noosa Everglades. This tropical wetland is one of only two everglade systems in the world. The Noosa Everglades are home to over 40% of all of Australia’s bird species, including pelicans, ducks, cormorants, eagles, jabirus, and more. The still water perfectly reflects the tall lush trees that border either side of the Noosa River. The wonder that is the Noosa Everglades is what makes the experience one of the best Sunshine Coast attractions.

Over almost 18 acres of land and overlooking the iconic Glass House Mountains and surrounded by a majestic rainforest, the gardens are a whole world apart from the rest of the Sunshine Coast. It’s easy to forget how close you are to the beach when you’re amongst abundant plant life. Wander along the paths or hire a buggy to get around faster. The Bird World is home to over 700 native and exotic birds. Be part of a walk-through, interactive tour and get up close and personal with the magnificent, avian creatures.
