Highlights

  • This full-day Whitsundays cruise from Airlie Beach is perfect for couples, families, and adventurers keen to snorkel, hike, and explore in one epic day.
  • Spend two hours on Whitehaven Beach’s dazzling silica sand, then follow your guide on a scenic bush walk to Hill Inlet for incredible island views.
  • Snorkel vibrant inner fringing reefs at Mantaray and Stonehaven Bays, spotting clownfish, giant wrasse, sea turtles, and colourful coral just off the shore.
  • Enjoy a chef-prepared lunch, plus morning and afternoon tea, with bus transfers from Airlie Beach making your day hassle-free.
  • Fun fact: Whitehaven’s sand is 98.9% pure silica—it doesn’t retain heat, so even on hot days, you can walk barefoot on the beach without burning your feet.
