Itinerary

  • Magnetic Island

    Discover the other side of Magnetic Island that few people experience, on our fun & informative 3 hour guided West Coast 4WD Eco Bus Discovery Tour. ​ We will take a slow bus trip along the West Point road as we explore mangroves, forests, waterfalls, creeks, as well as historic and cultural sites. Some points of interest will vary according to tides and weather, (i.e., mangroves at high or low tide, and waterfalls in or out of wet season). A little low impact walking will be done during the tour, and may include 2 to 3 short walks through the mangroves, the salt mashes, along creek lines and along the beach at West Point. All walks will be easy in nature. This tour offers a more relaxing wander rather than an active adventure.

Excellent day out with Tim from Mi Ride

Published on Jan, 2025

Tim is passionate and very knowledgeable with all things nature: flora and fauna. The west side of Maggie has so much to offer and Tim knows how to find the best of it. We learnt so much about the island and seeing a koala up close and 2 skates as well was brilliant.

Highly recommend

Published on Dec, 2024

Thoroughly enjoyable. Great to see the diversity on island & get away from people. Tim was great & knew his stuff without being obnoxious. Highly recommended.

A revelation in history, geology and nature

Published on Sep, 2024

Tim gave us a friendly, interesting and well informed tour leading us to see things we would not have noticed ourselves and hearing all about them. The relaxed sit down for well chosen refreshments was a pleasure. A very positive experience we would highly recommend.

West Coast up close and personal

Published on Sep, 2024

Tim was a great guide and so passionate and informative about the ecosystem on Magnetic there were many spontaneous stops along the way to check out all kinds of fascinating plants, trees, insects and wildlife capped off with a tasty morning tea well done Tim.

Wonderful & Informative

Published on Aug, 2024

Tim is a wonderful and knowledgeable guide who enjoys educating and showing visitors the quiet side of Magnetic Island. He pointed out a variety of trees, plants, animals and environments along the way as well as talking about the history and infrastructure of the island. For me the highlight was seeing a Blood Tree that leaked a lot of brilliant red sap.
