Overview

See platypus in their natural habitat. It is possible to see platypus at any time of the day, but our best chance is just after dawn.

We pick you up from your Byron Bay accommodation and drive to the special platypus area. From there we start our 2 km easy walk along the creek looking for platypus.

We usually see one or two platypus, and loads of birds. After watching the platypus have their breakfast we relax with ours – a picnic by the creek – before returning to Byron Bay.

We can’t guarantee platypus sightings on this tour, but don’t worry. If we don’t see them we take you on another day, free.

What's included:

Return transport
Environmental scientist as a guide
Use of binoculars
Access to photographs
Picnic Breakfast
Water refills

What to bring:
Water bottle
Hat
