Oz East Coast Adventure & Work

Kicking off in sunny Brisbane, we'll organize your airport transfer or meet you at the hostel. Meet your new travel crew and get excited for the adventures to come. Explore the highlights of Queensland's capital, and chill out at the only city man-made beach in Australia called ‘The Lagoon'.

Heading up to the laidback coastal town of Rainbow Beach, we’ll get to kick back on the sand or take a stroll through town before heading to K’gari - one of the absolute highlights on the East Coast. You’ll be driving 4x4’s around the biggest sand island in the world, and spend the next 3 days on sand dunes and beaches. Our next swim stop is the beautiful turquoise waters of Lake McKenzie, followed by a float down the river of Eli Creek. Indian

Heads lookout is our next stop for 360 views of K’gari, then we get to chill in the bubbles of the Champagne Pools. You will learn about the history of the Aboriginal culture on the island, spot dingoes in the wild, and see the stars as you sleep in a purpose built campsite with your group. Arriving back in Rainbow Beach, we’ll explore the colourful sand dunes before jumping on the overnight bus to Airlie Beach.

Enjoy some free time at the beachfront lagoon in Airlie Beach before discovering another absolute must do on the East Coast - the stunning Whitsundays. Made up of 74 tropical islands, we'll board our boat for the next 2 nights. Relax and sunbathe on the deck as we sail to the outer parts of the Great Barrier Reef. Snorkel with an abundance of marine life then later explore the amazing swirls of fine white sand on the world-famous Whitehaven Beach.

Today we'll jump on the ferry to a slice of tropical paradise - Magnetic Island. Over the next 2 days you'll stay in beach front huts while you explore the best of this magical Island. Chill out in your ocean front hammock, hire a car and explore the hidden beaches and hike up the historic Forts Walk. If you're lucky you'll even spot wild koalas and rock wallabies.

Time to relax in the chilled out beachfront town of Mission Beach, with your choice of any adrenaline pumping experience this tiny town is known for. If you‘ve ever thought of skydiving this is the place! Jump at 15,000ft and soak up views of both the Great Barrier Reef and rainforests before landing on the beach, or white water raft the Tully River rapids through a specular gorge surrounded by World Heritage Rainforest.

Cairns is the ultimate backpacker adventure hub. Here you'll tick off a massive bucket list item and experience a full day on the Great Barrier Reef. You'll get to snorkel and sail the Great Barrier Reef and visit 2 unique outer reef locations. While in Cairns we'll also explore the real Aussie oasis of the Atherton Tablelands. You'll swim under epic waterfalls, slide down natural rock slides and swim in dormant volcano craters all while your experienced guide teaches you about this extraordinary place.

Tonight we wrap things up with a farewell dinner and drinks to toast the incredible adventures we've had together.

Your epic Aussie adventure comes to an end this morning. We'll get you ready to head out and secure the job of a lifetime in paradise! Plus if you need help with onward travel or working in Oz we are here to help for the rest of your time in Australia.
