Our crew truly make the difference, they are passionate about showing our guests the highlights of the Whitsundays, are funny, easy going, yet professional and safety conscious. Our small group size of 35 guests max makes the cruise more personalised, where everyone knows everyone's name at the end of the cruise. The boat is fast and comfortable and is the best type of vessel to travel on if you suffer from sea sickness, as the open plan nature and speed prevents sea sickness. We are suitable for single travelers, couples, families, seniors and children 3 years +. The lunch served on Whitehaven is a highlight for many, fresh tasty salads, prawns, cold meats, fresh fruit served on a stunning beach in the shade.

A beautiful and fun experience with Big Fury!
Samantha S5.0Sep 2024My friend and I booked the Big Fury tour to experience the luscious islands of the Whitsundays. I cannot fault this experience at all. They came and picked us up from our resort, and the operators were super friendly and quite funny. The boat ride was fast and fun, and we even got to see a whale on the way back! We started off going to Hill Inlet for a small hike to the lookout, which was absolutely stunning views. Following this, we went for a snorkel at one of the reefs, and the guides were thoughtful and supportive of all fitness levels. Lastly, we went to Whitehaven beach, where they provided us a gorgeous lunch of cold cuts for sandwiches, fruit and what looks like homemade salads (special shout out to whoever made the potato salad - soooo yummy!) Each stop had a good amount of time to take in the surroundings as well. The entire trip was well thought out by locals who clearly know the area well. I would not hesitate to recommend this business, a bonus that it is family run.Highlight of our stay in The Whitsundays
Ronald W5.0Sep 2024Amazing day out with our skipper Lachie and his first mate Luke. Everything was great from pickup to drop off. Just the right amount of time everywhere and the buffet lunch was delicious. The views from Hill Inlet lookout were amazing (thanks Luke for encouraging and walking with us to the top) and Whitehaven Beach was pristine and perfect. The wind picked up which made the return a bit bumpy but we felt perfectly safe in Lachie’s capable hands. Loved the day.Don't miss this adventure.
vicki E4.0Aug 2024hill inlet scenery was amazing. be warned however, the wind makes the boat ride freezing so take a jacket regardless of the weather. we had a beautiful day but it was still freezing. Also, if you're not snorkeling you have to just sit on the boat for an hour while they do it. Only thing we didn't love. Lunch was lovely and crew weee greatAmazing
Judith P5.0Aug 2024Boat ride was great fun and scenery was unbelievable We even got to see a couple of whales and a turtleGreat day with Big Fury!
Kimberly D4.0Aug 2024We had a great day with the Big Fury team. The team was very communicative ahead of the tour when they reached out to adjust the start time due to tides. Lachy and Kate were an excellent team, with Lachy making sure we got everywhere we needed to on time. Hill Inlet was beautiful as was Whitehaven beach. Snorkeling was also fantastic - we even saw a sea turtle! We also saw manta rays and whales on the way to/from our destinations. The only reason why this is a 4/5 and not 5/5 is because they didn’t have enough seats for everyone to comfortably sit on the boat - my brother had to sit on a metal box - and there wasn’t anti-fog spray or vasoline for the snorkel gear. All in all though, we had a fun day!
