Fly, ride, sunbath, snorkel, paddle board, and walk all in one day. If you seriously want to see all the highlights of the Whitsundays and the Great Barrier Reef, this is the way to do it. Start your day with a 60 minute, fixed-wing flight over the Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef, with guaranteed window seats. Soar over iconic sights such as Hill Inlet, Whitehaven Beach, and Heart Reef. Capture it all on camera if you desire.
Following your flight, you have a whole day of boating adventure to come. Travel on board a fast and modern vessel, purpose-built for the Whitsundays. Have free time to enjoy the spectacular Whitehaven Beach and paddle board. Enjoy a guided bush walk to Hill Inlet. Take in the views from the top - the best photo opportunity in the Whitsundays. For the buffet lunch, you will be served a selection of cold meats, salads, and bread.
At South Whitehaven, have time for a swim and marvel at the white silica sand of the beach. Then, head to the north end of Hook Island or Hayman Island, the best location decided on the day, and go snorkeling on the coral reefs.
