Explore More Of The Whitsundays

Eco-friendly and extremely respectful of the natural environment of the Whitsunday Islands, Ocean Rafting provide passengers with exclusive access to famous and undisturbed spots in the Whitsundays.

With special permits to visit protected areas within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, not only do you get to experience one of the most beautiful beaches in the entire world – Whitehaven Beach – with its gorgeous blue waters and white silica sand, you also visit Hill Inlet Beach, located on the northern end of Whitehaven Beach where the white sand and blue hues blend flawlessly to create a breath taking pattern of swirls.

For anyone that wants to explore the water around the Whitsundays, Ocean Rafting also boast special snorkel sites at Border Island and Hook Island, including Mantaray Bay and Maureens Cove. Come face-to-face with the myriad of marine life that populates these parts such as turtles, sea stars, crustaceans, colourful fish and even humpback whales between June and October.

Ocean Rafting offer two tours: Northern Exposure and Southern Lights. The main difference between the two is that the former prioritises snorkel time while the latter focuses on beach time. Both tours depart from Airlie Beach on board a super fast, semi-rigid inflatable vessel, so you can experience a fun ride and get out to the less crowded parts of the Whitsundays. For just $149pp, you receive a buffet-style lunch, guided walks, snorkel lessons and courtesy coach pick-up.
