PLAN YOUR SCUBA DIVING DAY TRIP -
GETTING TO NORTH STRADBROKE ISLAND
Getting to North Stradbroke Island for a scuba diving day trip is easy with Manta Lodge & Scuba Centre and the Gold Cats Stradbroke Flyer. Booking your transport across on the Flyer is a simple process:
- When you book your double dive, try scuba or refresher, you will be asked to select a pickup location. Select the Gold Cats Flyer Terminal. This will appear on our manifest, and it's how our staff will know to pick you up!
- On the Optional Extras page, don't forget to add your Flyer ticket. If you do, no problem! Just give us a call, and we can sort it out for you.
- Arrive at the Gold Cats Stradbroke Flyer Terminal located at Toondah Harbour, end of Middle Street, Cleveland. Please allow plenty of time to find parking. Refunds are not given if you miss the Flyer. Our staff will then meet you at the other end, at the terminal on North Stradbroke Island.
Note: We do not offer pickups or tickets for the Stradbroke Ferries Water Taxi or Vehicle Ferry.
