Take the free return bus from Airlie Beach to Shute Harbour and spend the day cruising the Whitsunday Islands on a modern air-conditioned catamaran. Join a guided bushwalk up to Hill Inlet Lookout, one of Australia's most iconic views, then swim and stroll for up to 2 hours on the pure white silica sand of Whitehaven Beach. Morning tea, a lunch buffet and afternoon tea are served on board, and the rooftop deck offers 360° island views. The tour holds Advanced ECO certification from Ecotourism Australia.


Program

 

Cruise the Whitsunday Islands for a day
and visit Hill Inlet and Whitehaven Beach

 

Ride the free bus from your chosen Airlie Beach pick-up point to Shute Harbour, where the cruise departs at 9:00 AM. Over about 8 hours you will stop at Hill Inlet Lookout and Whitehaven Beach, the highlights of the Whitsundays, while enjoying meals and live commentary on board. Guest numbers are limited so you can move freely around the boat and enjoy the views.

 

 

Cross the Whitsunday Passage between the islands

 

 

Pass the picturesque Molle Islands and cross the Whitsunday Passage to Cid Harbour while the crew shares stories about the area's history and maritime culture. The boat then passes Nara Inlet and Hook Passage as it circles Whitsunday Island. Head up to the catamaran's rooftop deck for 360° island views.

 

 

Walk with a guide to Hill Inlet Lookout

 

 

The boat moors at Tongue Point, the gateway to Hill Inlet Lookout. Follow your guide on a bushwalk up to one of the most photographed views in Australia, with plenty of time for photos.

 

 

Relax for up to 2 hours at Whitehaven Beach

 

 

Cruise across Whitehaven Bay to the iconic Whitehaven Beach with its powder-white silica sand and crystal-clear water. Spend up to 2 hours swimming, walking along the shoreline or simply relaxing, or take an optional walk to an additional lookout.

 

Morning tea, a fresh lunch buffet and afternoon tea are served on board, and drinks can be purchased at the licensed bar throughout the day.
