Congratulations guys, so, so happy and proud of you both. Thank you for being brave, sharing your travels, ups and downs, creativity, infectious humour, Aussie slang, electrical and out door knowledge. Team work makes the dream work. Talent doesn’t always have to be measured by “ perfect grammar, concise history etc”. The ability to create super powers from what others consider weaknesses is truly inspiring. The positive vibe you both emit puts a smile on my face every week.👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
thanks mum!! I love you! ❤️❤️
Love the Invisi 3000, along with the tunes for pumping up the swag! Laughing with you Keelan!
Hahaha 🤣 cheers mate
Pump up the jam!! Hahahaha love the swag guys!!
Hahah thanks Ness
The best surf on Moreton is near the lighthouse on the northern tip. There is a small track to walk down to it . If you look across from honeymoon bay you can just see it 🏄♂️
I did see those! Couldn’t work out how to get down there though!! Need a local
We love you guys visiting these islands, it's so entertaining to watch 😊
Awesome episode again.
Cheers legend
Spectacular!❤🤤
Thanks legend
Hi Guys, All the Islands have something special, even Hope Island. Keep up the good work.
Thanks legend our mates live at hope island
Definitely Fraser. It can get super popular in the warmer months though.
Can’t wait to show you our Fraser trip mate
The van is epic 👌
Great fishing 👍
Thanks mark!!
Wow!! 49.9k subs as I’m writing this comment, should tick over to a massive 50k any moment now, congrats in advance that’s amazing you two 😀😀😀. Anyway, Moreton Island looks incredible, havent really seen much about it before your episode.
Thanks legend!! Where have you been Robyn, you have won our all smalls giveaway weeks ago and you havnt emailed us your address so we can send it out!!
My friend I believe you're reading the compass backwards. At 6:35 when you show the compass you think you're going NW but you're look at where the arrow is pointed it is actually SE. I have a 200 as well and it threw me off when I first saw it too :)
Hahaha you are right!! Thanks for pointing that out we appreciate it
Great looking spot
Cheers Richard!!
Love morteon, thanks for sharing
thanks ben! part 2 is next Friday mate!!
Quarter chub😂😂😂😂 I spat me beer out😂
Hahaha glad your having a giggle mate
Another classic vlog! You’re reading your LC200 compass backward, it’s pointing SE even though it’s in NW corner of the circle, it’s not very intuitive…
Thanks legend and yes You are 100% correct!! We were reading it 100% wrong how embarrassing and very counterintuitive
That looks great
Cheers legend
Should've kept one. Fresh bonito is yum. Moreton looks amazing. Great vid guys.
Thanks mate!! We did actually tasted alright!! I bled it straight away!
@@SarahandKeelanTravels those were actually small Mac tuna. Not too bad if you eat ‘em fresh and bled ‘em. Great bait for bottom fishing too. Well done
Another great video
thanks legend! cheers for watching
Have done the big 4 sand island trips , Moreton Island, my favourite . I loved it when you could get the barge from Scarborough ( as I lived on Redcliffe Peninsula).
It's so untouched, with very few ppl , unlike the others .
Luv the Invisi 3000 , it reminds me of a infinity edge pool . You can’t even see it . 😁😁
How good are those infinity pools aye,
Almost as good as the Invisi .🤣🤣
Love you guy's 😊
Love you too mate
My favourite of the island series thus far. Dont know what was, back to "basics" camping, perfect weather or the fishing (is the curse broken) loved it guys!!
thanks mate!! we are loving going back to the swag!!! first couple nights were rough but got used to it pretty quick! we were worried people would stop watching haha
Loving the island series. Been hanging for weeks to see this Morton ep. But thoroughly disappointed you did not tow the van on there. Thats what we were keen to see.
thoroughly disappointed? sorry we have disappointed you with our free content. Thanks for watching & have a fantastic day!
@@SarahandKeelanTravels don't get upset or sarcastic, possibly he was planning to take his van. keep doing good things. cheers
Great ep again guys - thank you - I live across the bay from Moreton so have only ever been there by boat - great place ah - fishing is great too. Safe travels legends - hope you snorkelled the wrecks on a clear vis day - it is truly beautiful.
Oh no way!! You gotta do it by 4x4! I bet you have caught some good fish out there!!
That looks like a really nice island to visit. Loving this island series. 👍
Thanks Philip!! Cheers for always watching and commenting!! Your loyalty means heaps!! 🤙🏽🍻🍻
@@SarahandKeelanTravels My pleasure. You guys make awesome content.
gday from sunny Queensland , rich kids back on the road , cheers
Gday mate
Went to Moreton Island once, about 45 years ago. It was so unspoiled then & looks like it's still not too over commercialized. Good camping set up guys. 😊
It’s very raw still which is good!
Fraser is the bomb! Had a wicked time on Fraser over Easter.
Queensland is the best guys, lots of beach, sand and sunshine. Perfect one day absolutely spectacular the next.
100% agree its amazing!! we are loving the climate and water temp!
Absolutely hooked on your videos guys! Living the dream! Those spots are beautiful
Did you notice at the 22:21second mark there was a dolphin jumping out the back of the wave? Yeah, we have it pretty damn good here in sunny Queensland. 😊
soo cool hey! they were doing it all morning!!
Love your real chats in the car and your fun personalities! And we've been to Moreton with the kids a few times and always love it! Thanks for sharing it with us again! Makes me want to head back there, phil
thanks Phil I hope we did it justice!! a bit of pressure when its such a incredible place!! part 2 of our Moreton Bay vids is next week!!
Fun Vid All Round 😂 Keelan You Larrikin 🍻 Cheers 🍹Guys Aussie 🎣🏄🏕On 🇦🇺
Thanks Rosco!! Cheers for all the support mate
bloody hell, talk about paradise. How freaking awesome is Moreton, been years since we have been there.. Def on the cards to visit again
It’s insane hey! You Queenslanders have it good over here!! Why would you wanna leave haha 😂
Your gunna be eating like king's 🇦🇺🇦🇺🏝🏝
Always mate
Compliments to the 2 of you for doing the right thing with tyres & the way you drive on the sand. No need to brute force i with 40psi & you get to look after your vehicle too.
We love dropping low as and just cruising going super slow through soft bits and watching everyone else get stuck and hit it at 80kmh haha 😂
Favourite island depends on what we are vibing at the time… Fraser and Morton are the best but Fraser can be over packed…we still can’t go pass Straddie as it’s on our door step and we can take our frenchies
I agree! I think they all have there own beauty!!
On the far side of Honey Moon Bay is Bolders' good waves on the right swell. But pack an esky with piss as it's a good walk😊
seen those waves and had no idea how to get there hahah
Thanks Keelan and Sarah for showing us a great island to visit. It was good to see you do it without a van. We would do it in a tent on the sand.
thanks Dale!! back to basics mate glad you enjoyed it!!
Great vid as usual. QLD is our home. We love travelling in our caravan to. My ADHD brain is loving your positive energy Keelan & Sarah keep up your happy smiles & cheap eats. Hubby & I cant wait to watch your next episode.🎉
thanks legend! glad your enjoying the videos!! every day above ground is a good one!!
I love your selection of music
Looks incredible guys living the dream
Ahh bringing back memories of my trip to Moreton few years ago. We also got to feed the dolphins at dusk. Was sooo nice. Also drank champagne at champagne bay.
That’s pretty cool! We didn’t get that close to them!! Sounds awesome Helen!!
What can I say this time? Loved it as usual but this time you have have outdone yourselves! Thanks so much, keep enjoying & stay safe ☀️🐠🏄♂️💞
Thanks legend!! Glad you enjoyed it! We bloody love this place aye!! You too ❤️🍻🤙🏽
Really love watching your adventures and completely agree Morton is amazing!! Just wanted to clarify that Captain Cook did not discover Morton Island, it is and always will Aboriginal Land and home to its Traditional owners the Quandamooka People. It would be awesome if you identified Aboriginal Nations and places of significance on your travels. Thanks so much guys, safe travels 🙌
100% agree and that is our mistake, we 100% always take the time to know who the traditional owners of the land are, we should be more clear about that! Thanks for the suggestion!!
Great vid - close to home....
Thanks mark!! No “nioce one day” haha
What an awesome island and great footage. The whole Vlog was great guy’s, keep having a ball 👍👍
Thanks legend! Glad you liked it!! We are having a ball! Cheers mate
Nice video guys! Very happy people!!! I wouldn’t even know about these places!!!
- just be very very careful when filming and fishing use two, when you had that tuna on that rod was bent over loaded going straight back at Sarah, if that fish let the lure go it could of hit one of you and wrecked the whole trip.
Keep safe guys cheers
Thanks legend! Great tip, never thought of that! Thankyou for having our back and will 100% take this into account!
Cheers legend
Awesome video takes me back to your early days
Thank you very much for your hard work.
Cheers
Johnny&Rene
Thanks guys!! Hope your going well!!
wow! heaps cool! and in winter too ! you guys are living it up !! very fortunate!! congrats on your trip! 🌥️🌊🌅🐟🏞️🛻📹🤙😎
Thanks mate! Who would of thought it’s winter in Queensland! We love the climate here!! Thanks for the comment mate
Moreton Island looks so pretty. ❤️🇦🇺🦘
its incredible Gail!! thanks for watching ❤️
Beautiful Island 🏝 Moreton , awesome content mates 😀 love the fishing 🎣 😊 Thanks for another awesome episode 😀 Greetings and cheers 🍻 from south africa 🇿🇦
thanks legend!! heaps of fishing going down around the islands!! greetings to South Africa mate! thanks for watching
Looked like so much fun guys! Another awesome episode! Thanks heaps for sharing! 🍺🥂🍺🥂🍺🥂🍺🥂🍺
Thanks legend!! Cheers for watching 🍻🍻🍻
Comeon mate surely you are not expecting us to believe you caught that. We have all seen your attempts in the past at catching fish. Time to admit that Sarah caught it and gave you the rod so you could keep your man card. Great looking spot and neat swag. BUT THAT new Invisi van now that is gunna take some beating.
HahHa thanks Dan! Yeah mate I’m a guru now, don’t know what happened but they now call me Rex hunt haha 😂😂😂
moreton is sick but it has nothing on Fraser.. youll find that out when you get to fraser
Can’t wait to show you what we did at Fraser!!
Nth Straddie and Flinders Beach is great because you can take dogs. Fraser is big with lots to see and do but it can get really busy. Moreton is our favourite as it’s like a small Fraser without the crowds.
They are all awesome in there own right! I agree with your comments! Can’t wait to show you part two next week of Moreton then we head to Fraser!!
All the islands are special in their own way but Moreton is our favourite, least busy & hubby’s fishing club has a club house there.
Nothing beats beach camping without the crowds.
Hope you had a snorkel around the wrecks while you stayed.
Our daughter’s school had their year 12 Marine Biology camp there & she did schoolies week there too. Terrible living so close to paradise 🤣😍
I 100% agree with that!!! they all have there Beauty!! snorkelled the wrecks! next week is part 2 of our Moreton Bay videos!! cant wait to show ya!!
Fraser Island is amazing and my favourite island
oooo its a tough one! cant wait to show you our Fraser trip!!
One of your best videos , Just enjoy the whole video guys,
Thanks Barry!! Part 2 is coming next week and we think it’s even better again!! Thanks for the feedback, keeps us on the right track!
awesome Keelan , Moreton Island is a must do , epic 4wding and fishing
Thanks Rolly!! 100% mate you’ll love it
Livin Keelan. Loving the adventures. Wishing you safe travels. Barry
Thanks Barry! Thanks for the comment mate
I definitely want an offroad hybrid caravan one day, but that's good camping right there 🤙
they are awesome mate! perfect for Moreton!!
Morton is a lovely spot🏝🏝🏝
It’s insane
Cracking episode again guys,love Morton Island.
cheers Leon!!
The invisi 3000 is awsome but ya never buy a first year model👍
Hahahah that’s true mate, wait until we get the invisi4000 😂😂
Beautiful island, beautiful video
Thanks for watching greg and the kind words!
Used your itech code! Cheers guys
Free money!! how good guys!! I hope you saved a heap of money! make sure you tell ya mates then tell them they owe you beers for saving them money haha
Amazing guys
Absolutely love Moreton Island. Driving straight off the Ferry after it drops open is so sick. Epic video again legends
Thanks Damon!! Mate have no idea how you watched the whole video in 11 minutes when it’s a 22minute video haha 😂😂
@@SarahandKeelanTravels hahah ngl as soon as I saw that ferry open I was ready to comment. As if the rest wasn't going to be good. Then sure enough moments later you are pumping up that swag come on hahah
Keelan is starting to get travelers brain. His losing the plot 😂😆 pumping that swag up Jesus haha
Bahahah finally caught travellers brain, wanted to catch it for 2 years now haha
@@SarahandKeelanTravels lol. I remember coastal cruising on a friends boat going up the Qld coast and not being able to work out what day it was. It's awesome 😊
Fraser is prettier and a lot bigger. Unfortunately there are crowds full of the 'Send It' brigade. The bakery at Eurong does fantastic fresh food. The Western side is a must. If you go to Lake MacKenzie, go early to avoid the crowds. It gets a lot of tourists as the day progresses. Moreton is better from the point of view of less people/crowds and over-visited attractions. So much more relaxing on Moreton; it is my favourite.
Woooooot!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼
yeeeeetttt
You just need to recalibrate Leroys compass. Just check the manual it should be a simple process of getting into the right mode then driving in circles a couple of times.
thanks mate will look into it!! ill ring head office in Japan 😂 cheers grant great idea!
Awesome video Moreton 😊 heaven
bloody oath!! part 2 is next Friday its way better!!
@@SarahandKeelanTravels send it 🤙 when you guys making it to the NT
What an awesome swag. Could you use a compressor to blow it up?
Enjoy playing in my backyard. 🙂
Yes you could use the compressor but honestly takes 30 seconds with the hand pump
Maybe you’re compass is out 180 degrees due to a car being made in the northern hemisphere and it is calibrated up there 😂 have a great time over there 👍
Hahaha maybe!! That’s a clever thought!!
Might have to patent the idea 🤔
Hi Guys, welcome to Qld and glad you are enjoying the islands. Morton is the best in the bay and so close to Brisbane. We have been known to take the Jetski over there and ride the crystal waves. It's a short trip across from Redcliffe so an easy trip if the bay is calm. If you head inland later to see the dams let us know
Thanks Dan! We are loving Queensland mate, the climate here is awesome!! You’re a brave man! That’s a big ocean in between! Too easy will do! Thanks for watching and the comment! Was that you who just signed up for Patreon??
@@SarahandKeelanTravels Sure was. I've been watching for a short while and wanted to support you guys. Hope it helps
Thanks Dan, glad you enjoy our content!! Mate it helps heaps! Thanks
Wow awesome island, lovin the vids as always. I ordered and just received the Outback cooking set and bag, you’re right great bit of kit👍keep on living your dream guys 🍻
Thanks for watching mate,
We love the pot and pan set! Use it everyday!! Thanks again! Remember our SKT5 code next time and might save some money for ya!
Hey Guys loved watching you from Moreton island 😁 looks amazing over there, and fun fishing off shore too! We took your advice and bought a couple of Matso’s to trial and they are going down well Sarah 😁 will have to pack some on our next little trip! Love watching you guys and Leroy on the beach!
Thanks legend! Mateos are awesome hey!! I love them for a quiet session, taste so good but couldn’t drink 10 of the things haha
Beautiful
Thanks mark!!
Definitely give Fraser a crack guys👌 it will be your favourite island hands down
Just spectacular... heading up there in a month and a bit.... can't wait. Ta for the "dropp the pressures" tip 🙃
thanks for watching! you'll love it! next Friday we will release the part 2 full episode and its got heaps of good info in it!!
@@SarahandKeelanTravels All your vid’s do. That’s why I love watching them. No BS, lots of laughs and straight up info you can use. You and Ronnie Dahl are my go to’s.
Great spot Moreton Island, was there a few years ago.
23 min 23 seconds through did you know there was a hug fish jumping out behind the swell.
how cool is that! they are dolphins playing in the waves!!
Love all the Island but Fraser Island would have to be my no 1. Heading to Morten in July then Fraser in September. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Sandra!! Next week we drop part 2 of Moreton which is even better than tonight’s episode and then the following weeks we show you Fraser!! You can decide which is best!! We can’t choose!
awesome vid guys! kept hearing 'fairy' every time keelan said ferry, great picture of him riding on the back of a fairy over to moreton
Hahaha I honestly say both those words the exact same, didn’t know there was a difference 😂 might just be the oka in the accent haha
Ferry as in berry
Your going to flip your lid when u hit fraser 🎉✌️✌️
We did! Can’t wait to show ya that one
This was amazing to watch, family owns a property at Cowan Cowan and this place is my second home. Love your guys energy!
Subbed 🤙
Great episode as always guys. I hope you weren’t among the same bait ball as all those sharks the other day😮. Absolutely loving the island hopping. Making my day every week 🙂🙂🙂🙂
Thanks mate!! Hectic sharks hey! Cheers Neville! Thanks for the kind comment mate
Fantastic video you both it look a bit funny you both cruising around Morton with out your Caravan. I’m sure it would take a bit to get used to not having luxury camping. If I was you guys I would put a roof top tent on top it probably be way better than a swag but it’s your choice. Looking forward to next week episode
hahaha I bet!! we feel funny not luxury camping!! its good to get out of the comfortable zone though!! we had such a good time in the swag!! I agree roof top tent is the go but we don't have enough weight left to add that, so swag it is for a while haha cheers Jeremy!!
Great video, completly enjoing watching it. Keep going grear job.👍
I have unusual qestion , what is the song you are plainig in the baggroud, it starts at aroud 8 min. and 30 seconds . You have use it few times in recent videes. Thanks
hey Robert!! thanks mate! if you download an app called Shizam, you can press a button and it listens and identifies any song you might like from us! its a free app we love it!!
Make that Moreton Island. ;(
I knew what you meant mate!! cheers Leon
Great episode guy's. Hey Keelan you're wrong bro, the earth is flat. You'll see when you're at the beach. Look at that flat ocean. Water always finds a level surface!
That’s gravity bro, the earth is round, meaning it rotates on a near perfectly balanced axis and speed creating a uniform gravitational pull of 9.8m/s! like when you spin a full bucket of water around your head and it dosnt spill everywhere, even though it’s upside down. The centripetal force keeps the water flat and in the bucket, this motion and centripetal force is acting the same as gravity is on the earths surface! When we do night lapses of the stars at night for 10 hours you can literally see the earth rotating through space. Also why it’s currently night time in most of Australia and it’s fully day time over seas!
@@SarahandKeelanTravels Buoyancy and Density. Gravity is just a made up theory. All you have to do is have an open mind and look with the eyes that God gave you and you'll find the answers. oh and follow #flatearth 🌞
Absolutley loved this episode . planning to get to moreton later in the year. Did you get any mobile phone reception there ? Cheers guys
Thanks mate! Fair bit of reception hey! On both sides of the island
Hey Keegan your compass is fine. You’re reading it wrong. When you flashed it on the screen it showed SE to me. You’re traveling in the direction the red arrow is pointing, not where the the red arrow is located in the compass circle. It’s a crazy Toyota thing! I have a Hilux with the same compass.
Thanks mate!! You are 100% right! Very embarrassing haha
@@SarahandKeelanTravels *Keelan …. Sorry about the autocorrect on your name. I didn’t see it until just now!
You say you’ll tell us the story of why you didn’t bring your van but it wasn’t in this episode - do you talk about it in the next one?
Loving your journey!
Yeah sorry about that it’s in the next one!! Had to split the episodes up or it would of been an hour long
@@SarahandKeelanTravels no worries! Also happy to watch an hour haha 😉
❤ How good is Moreton 🙌🏽
Soooo bloody good we loved it!!
Im always looking forward to more content from you guy's always enjoy every video. Would be good to see keelan finally put the winch to some use instead of just pulling tent pegs lol
Thanks mate!! Haha you wait heaps of winching coming up in the next episodes!!
I generally lock my centre diff on sand even if it’s not overly boggy. Mainly to disable traction control. In some scenarios traction can destroy your brakes in sand.
thanks mate, in the cruiser you just have to hold the TC button for 5 seconds and it fully turns it off!
Whats traction control , if u turn that off u wont get traction dosnt make sence , old school me in an old cruiser got no idea with this push button modern stuff 😅
That's cause they're not turning off "traction control".
The squiggly lines button is "Stability Control".
Once it's de-activated the brakes don't engage trying to stabilise the car, hence defeating forward progress however, the traction control feature is still active and does still play a roll in keeping forward momentum occuring.
Should a wheel lose traction, traction control still briefly brakes the spinning wheel.
So looking forward to K'gari, cause it more prestigious than Moreton.
False Ian. If you press the TC button stability control turns off and if you hold that button for 5 seconds it turns of traction control aswell,
Both are garbage on the beach. Traction control also does not keep the car moving forward. The accelerator peddle does that.
@@SarahandKeelanTravels thanks for clarifying, I took it as just switching of S/C, as so many are not aware of difference between S/C & T/C switching, even supposedly experienced 4WD journos, hmm.
It's S/C (stability control) that's crap on the beach, it'll bog any vehicle ASAP on loose sand, usually not an issue on hard sand, but better off regardless prior to entering beach.
Curious, have you tried leaving the T/C (traction control) on? If you haven't tried it, give it a go, just kill S/C initially.
T/C normally benefits as if you have a wheel loose traction, before you're even aware of it as a driver the ECU has delved in, dabbed the brakes and delivered drive to opposing axle.
I'm contrary to your belief, I find T/C is actually good on beach or any surface basically. Again,if you haven't tried it, give it a go.
Basically the only time you'd want it off is when diff locks are engaged and the ECU does that automatically if diff locks are factory.
Mate, if you're currently on or been to K'gari, how's the pristine west coast been? Awesome, isn't it? Waiting to know if "Keith" tailed you 🤔.
