We booked late and this was actually the only trip we could find. However we loved the big boat feel. Being able to walk around the boat and spend some time in the sunny but windy top deck. Great lunch and other snacks. Well organised and good staff. I would highly recommend this trip. The itinerary is perfect to get a good experience of Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet. A relaxing day.

We all had such a great time, amazing crew, very friendly and informative. Macca was an awesome tour guide on our walk.

The food spread was beautiful. The beach time we had was amazing. Family of 5 and we all had a really good time.

Thank you.

This tour is brilliant. Hotel drop off and pick up included. All day cruise and guide around the islands, Hill Lookout and Whitehaven beach. Fed multiple snacks and lunch throughout the day. The crew were super professional yet great craic at the same time. The organisation and coordination of all the passengers really impressed me the most when it came to the buffet, tendering ashore and distribution of stinger suits. Always calm and effficent. I also really appreciated the marquee shade on the beach during the 2 hours. GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY! A must do when in Airlie Beach.

Everything was ok, but spent too much time in Whitehaven beach and there was not enough time to visit Betty's Beach, we could only see the hill inlet lookout. No snorkeling available either.

Food was average, crew was good. I went with another tour in the past and it was really great comparing to this one.

We are charged extra $100 while booking, family discount is not applied for 2A2C.
They didn’t even take us to the Betty’s beach while it was the only reason we took the trip and they just took us to the look out point where we spent 1 hour for taking pics and walk in 35C heat.
Gourmet lunch was just regular salad and cold chicken and cold roast beef, don’t expect any gourmet food as claimed.
Very dirty seats and fully occupied tables, we had to stay outside and eat on our laps.
The first beach they took us was lots of weeds and leaves, couldn’t enjoy the water and we spent 2,5h there doing nothing.
I would never recommend this tour to anyone who would like to get true Whitehaven experience. It was definitely not worth it

We were told it would be a 'brochure day' and I can confirm it was absolutely stunning @sealinkwhitsundays get on board peeps! An absolute must to travel with these guys! The destination is breath-taking and these guys do a superb job! A massive cat that could hold 3 times more peeps but they are dedicated to providing a comfortable trip. The booking service was great - my request for gluten free happily accommodated. I did give some feedback to ensure that items were coeliac friendly but I can say that no contamination occurred. (always a good thing). The skipper and boat crew are fantastic and you have a good couple of hours on the beach... they provided beach games for the big and small kids... the water is stunning and the sand just needs to be experienced to be believed.

Don't take my word for it... see it for yourself you will not be disappointed. Its a bucket list thing.

Excellent tour, which ran smoothly from start to finish. Staff were exceptional and in particular Dave and Jade were outstanding in the care they gave my elderly Dad. The whole crew were helpful and friendly and the onboard commentary was very interesting.
We travel a lot internationally and agree that this was one of the best run tours we have done in Australia. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a brilliant day at Whitehaven Beach and a glimpse of many other Whitsundays Islands.

Well planned trip. The crew is very organized and everything is very good and efficient. It would be great to see the Hill Inlet Lookout though which is not included.
