A full day on the charter boat ( 8 hours) allows our guests to visit world famous Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Lookout; more time to snorkel and enjoy some stand up paddle boarding at some of the top Whitsunday Island anchorages.
Jump onboard and let us show you around the Whitsunday Islands on your very own time schedule on a charter boat tour.
Our snorkelling locations include Mantaray Bay, home to the most famous hump headed Maori Wrasse called George (Wally's cousin) and so many tropical fish you won't believe your eyes!
This is one spot when on holiday you won't want to miss and is very popular, especially with children and visitors to the local area that have not seen these types of marine animals before.
