River to Bay
River to Bay is your passport to explore, linking the city of Brisbane to the natural wonders of Moreton Bay and Islands. Let their fleet of fast tour boats whisk you away to the bay in safety and comfort.
Their engaging cultural guides will share the stories of the Brisbane and Moreton Bay region from the dreamtime to the present.
With so many amazing sights within easy cruising range, River to Bay offers a range of themed tours to try to cover the highlights. While some tours focus on exploring nature with guided walks and snorkelling, others focus on heritage experiences or blazing a trail of seafood, wine and craft beer. All River to Bay tours feature scenic cruising and encounters with local Moreton Bay marine life.

Amity Water Taxi
Our destination is the small seaside township of Amity which is the hub to start your exploration of Straddie. We highly recommend exploring the world-famous beaches and eco trails as well as participating in a cultural experience. Please see our “Experience Straddie Guide” to plan your day or longer stay.
River to Bay operates a bus service from the Amity Jetty at Amity Point (our arrival point on the Island) and services the Island. The bus operates in a loop around the north side of the island and you can simply hop on and off at your own leisure. You can purchase your River to Bay bus pass. We highly recommend securing a ticket on our bus service. Quite often on weekends, tourists can find themselves stranded without transport due to the high number of visitors on the island.
To ensure a seat onboard our water taxi service, we recommend booking, however we do allow walk passengers and we can take payment on the boat.
Get away from the busy city for a fun-filled Stradbroke Island day trip, experiencing the vibrant culture and exploring the breathtaking nature of Stradbroke with River to Bay’s Stradbroke Island Ferry service.
