What is a Hookah?

Originating from South Asia and the Middle East almost 500 years ago, the Hookah is a stemmed smoking instrument which utilises a water basin to create vaporised smoke for inhalation by one or more users. Traditionally used to smoke flavoured tobacco products, hookahs were also often used as an instrument to smoke herbs, which continues to form a large role within the culture of these regions. Also known by the name shisha, hookah spread around the world in the 20th century, and continues to be adopted as a social pastime in Western countries today.

At Online Smoke, we aim to be Australia’s largest online provider of quality hookah solutions for any purpose. Whether you’re looking for a mini hookah, a larger acrylic hookah with various hoses or a massive four hose hookah with a custom case, you’ll find it all here at Online Smoke. We even stock all the essentials you need to get started smoking hookah, including herbal shisha smoke, bowls, tongs, charcoal and hoses.

Choosing the Right Hookah for You

Every hookah experience starts with the right piece, chosen to match your habits, taste and the moments you want to create. At Online Smoke, we understand that every smoker’s needs are different, which is why we stock a wide range of models, from simple and compact to bold statement pieces and social-friendly setups.

• • For Casual Users or First-Timers — A smaller or acrylic hookah is an excellent starting point. These models are lightweight, easy to assemble and built to withstand regular use. They're a top choice for learning the basics without worrying about delicate materials or complex setups.
• • For Those Who Love Design and Detail — Our full glass hookahs with LED lighting are as much a conversation piece as they are a smoking instrument. Suitable for collectors or anyone who appreciates modern craftsmanship, these hookahs combine functionality with eye-catching style.
• • For Gatherings and Shared Experiences — If your hookah sessions are about connection and community, a multi-hose hookah like the Mya Legend or Mya Dionysus is ideal. With two, three or even four hoses, these models are designed to bring people together.

Hookah Essentials and Accessories

A great hookah experience isn’t just about the pipe itself. The right accessories help every session run smoothly, ensuring better flavour and an all-round enjoyable experience.

• • Bowls

The bowl is the heart of your hookah, holding the shisha and controlling how evenly it heats. From single-hole designs to deep silicone or decorative styles, choosing the right bowl can transform your session by enhancing airflow and flavour longevity.

• • Heat Management

Consistent heat is key to a satisfying smoke. Essentials like heat management devices, foil and electric charcoal burners help regulate temperature, making it easier to avoid harsh hits and get the most from your flavours.

• • Mouthpieces

Hygiene and comfort matter, especially when sharing a hookah. Reusable male mouthpieces and cooling options like ice tips keep each draw clean, smooth and refreshing, excellent for both solo and group sessions.

• • Hoses and Adapters

Customising your hookah setup is simple with the right hoses and adapters. Whether you’re upgrading to a new hose or expanding to a multi-hose configuration, these accessories add flexibility and make your hookah fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.

At Online Smoke, we have everything you need to complete your hookah setup. Once the essentials are covered, all that’s left is to sit back and enjoy the experience.

FAQs About Hookah Smoking

Is smoking a hookah bad for you?

While all forms of smoking carry health risks, many enjoy hookah as a leisurely activity and a way to socialise and relax. It's important to approach hookah smoking with moderation and awareness, much like any indulgence. For those concerned about health, there are also tobacco-free shisha options that can reduce exposure to nicotine and other substances found in traditional shisha tobacco.

Is shisha legal in Australia?

Yes. However, the sale and use of shisha tobacco are subject to the same regulations as other tobacco products, including age restrictions and places where smoking is allowed. It's important to be aware of and comply with local laws and regulations when purchasing or enjoying shisha in Australia.

Why do people smoke hookah?

People smoke hookah for various reasons, including the social aspect, the relaxing experience and the enjoyment of the flavours. Hookah lounges and sessions offer a unique ambience and an opportunity to unwind with friends, making it a popular choice for social gatherings. The variety of shisha flavours also adds to the appeal, catering to different tastes and preferences.

How does hookah compare to smoking cigarettes?

Hookah smoking is often perceived as a less intense and more social alternative to cigarette smoking. Unlike cigarettes, hookah sessions are typically shared among friends and can last for an extended period, making it a more leisurely experience. However, it's important to note that both practices involve inhaling smoke, and health implications should be considered.

Can you smoke hookah without tobacco?

Yes, you can enjoy hookah without tobacco by using herbal shisha, which is tobacco-free and often made from a blend of tea leaves, fruits and molasses or honey. Herbal shisha offers a similar smoking experience with a wide range of flavours but without the nicotine, making it a popular choice for those looking to avoid tobacco while still enjoying the hookah experience.
