FIND US

LAKE ESCAPADES is based in Boreen Point, a small village on the shores of Lake Cootharaba, surrounded by national parks and state forests.  The Lake is part of the Noosa River waterway system, in South-East Queensland, Australia, and is separated from the ocean to the east by a narrow stretch of the Great Sandy National Park.

 

We do not operate from a single general-purpose office or location.  Instead, we will meet you at one of several locations in or around Boreen Point depending on what you want to do.  It is for this reason that it is always best to contact us in advance if at all possible to discuss what you'd like to do and to make a booking.  You are welcome to turn up without a booking but we can not always guarantee availability.

 

You may find us as follows. 

​

  • For PADDLE'N PICNIC CASUAL HIRES of canoes, kayaks & SUPs on Lake Cootharaba - We operate from a designated area on the foreshores of Lake Cootharaba about 50m south of the Coffee Shop and the Lake Cootharaba Sailing Club (yellow marker).  You will find our sign in the parkland area opposite 16 Boreen Parade, Boreen Point.  Free all-day parking is available.
     

  • For exploring THE  NOOSA EVERGLADES by canoe or kayak - At your choice, launches for both day and overnight trips can be either from the public boat ramp at Boreen Point (green marker) or the public canoe launch ramp at Elanda Point (blue marker) with its associated carpark (pink marker).  Launching at Elanda is the safest option as this minimises the paddling distance required across Lake Cootharaba to reach the start of the Everglades area.  For launches at Elanda Point we initially meet you for our safety briefing at the group of four roadside letterboxes at 81 Lake Flat Road, Boreen Point (red marker) and you then follow us in your vehicle to the Elanda launch area.  Free all-day and overnight parking is available.
     

  • If COLLECTING a canoe or kayak - And transporting it yourself away from this area, such as to Harrys Hut or the Mary River, we will normally meet you beside the group of four letterboxes located at 81 Lake Flat Road, Boreen Point (red marker)
