Visit two of Australia’s best-loved destinations on a scenic Whitsundays cruise – Hamilton Island and Whitehaven Beach. Hamilton Island is a sophisticated, family-friendly resort, with excellent eating, drinking and shopping opportunities. Not far away on Whitsunday Island, glorious Whitehaven Beach is one Australia’s most beautiful stretches of sand

From Port of Airlie, cruise across the Whitsunday Passage and into the Whitsunday Islands. On Hamilton Island, hop-on/hop-off shuttle buses take you past key attractions and scenic lookouts. Cool-off in the main pool with its swim-up bar, visit iconic Catseye Beach, or browse the waterfront shops and galleries before lunch at Marina Tavern. You’ll also have the chance to explore Whitehaven Beach, where you can wander along the 7km shoreline – beachcombing, bushwalking and wading in the warm, crystal-clear water.

    Unfortunately we ended up only going for 20 minutes because of the weather and the sea conditions, then we came back and I was told they were going to find a way to compensate me for the activity that I didn’t do. Not their fault, just unfortunate.

    We had an excellent day out on the boat with cruisewhitsundays . Plenty of time in both Hamilton island and at Whitehaven beach . The free bus to get round Hamilton island is an easy and relaxing way to see everything .
