A couple of kilometres north of Tewantin, the Noosa River widens into Lake Cooroibah. If you take the Noosa North Shore Ferry, you can drive up to the lake in a conventional vehicle and camp along sections of the beach.
Camel Company Australia has beach camel rides, overnight trips and a six-day Fraser Island safari.
Lake Cootharaba & Boreen Point

Lake Cootharaba is the biggest lake in the Cooloola Section of Great Sandy National Park, measuring about 5km across and 10km in length. On the western shores of the lake and at the southern edge of the national park, Boreen Point is a relaxed little community with several places to stay and to eat. The lake is the gateway to the Noosa Everglades, offering bushwalking, canoeing and bush camping.
Elanda Point

From Boreen Point, an unsealed road leads another 5km to Elanda Point, and the headquarters of Elanda Point Canoe Company which rents canoes, kayaks and camping equipment. It can also arrange permits, Noosa transfers, and transfers to Kinaba and Harry’s Hut camping grounds in Great Sandy National Park but rates are much cheaper if you rent a canoe. Cooloola Canoes & Kayaks also hires out canoes and kayaks.
