6 Day Whitsundays Islands Paradise Explorer Tour
Secluded palm-fringed beaches, hidden waterfalls and crystal-clear waters? The Whitsunday Islands are a dream holiday destination for lovers of the sun and sea. This adventure will take you from the coastal town of Airlie Beach to the luxurious Paradise Cove, with two nights spent on an authentic 100-year-old Tall ship thrown in for good measure. Spend time exploring a number of the stunning islands within the archipelago, swimming in the Coral Sea and appreciating the unique tropical nature, wildlife and culture in the area. But most of all, just relax and enjoy yourself, you’re in paradise, after all!
Why you will love this tour?
- Spend two nights aboard a 100-year-old Tall Ship, visiting various Whitsunday Islands and swimming off the boat.
- Witness a welcome to country and a short talk about the history and culture talk of the Whitsundays from a local member of the Ngaro family.
- Enjoy a hike on South Molle Island, where you’ll have stunning views on the reef, rainforest and local tropical birdlife.
- Have access to your own private beach on the edge of the Coral Sea, with white sands and postcard-perfect views.
- As the some of this trip takes place on a sailing boat, you’ll need to feel comfortable with moving about the vessel, including the use of stairs. With that said, sea legs come naturally to some but not so much for others. Your friendly crew will be able to help with the effects of sea sickness if needed.
- This trip visits some amazing beaches along the way. Please consider your swimming competency before getting in the water.
- Time on the water also means time in the sun. Remember to pack sun protection, such as sun screen and a hat, and drink plenty of water to keep hydrated.
