The Elanda Point Canoe Launch sits on the Noosa River and serves as one of two key put-in points for self-guided paddlers heading into the Noosa Everglades system.

It provides direct water access for canoes and kayaks venturing into the upper river and Lake Cootharaba region.

Paddlers should note that much of the Noosa Everglades is a designated no-wash zone, which restricts motorised vessel speeds and requires careful trip planning.

The launch is also noted on Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service maps as part of the Cooloola Recreation Area within Great Sandy National Park, making it a practical starting point for multi-day kayak camping expeditions along the upper Noosa River.
