DESCRIPTION
Join this Whitehaven Beach Big Island Day Tour for a scenic day cruise around the Whitsunday Islands including a visit to the famous Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Lookout. This one of a kind day in the Whitsundays will take you to places no other Whitsunday Island tour goes to, cruising in air-conditioned comfort.
Circumnavigate Whitsunday Island on the Whitsundays Ngaro Sea Trail touring South Molle Island and Hook Island. For a better vantage point, you may prefer to head upstairs to the rooftop deck for unspoilt views. A complimentary gourmet lunch, morning tea and afternoon is served on board as well as a guided walking tour of Whitehaven Beach so you can sink your toes into the powder-white silica sands. At the conclusion of the day, complimentary bus transfers can return you to your hotel or town if you wish to kick on into the evening in Airlie Beach.
