GREAT BARRIER REEF TOURS
Ocean Rafting
Airlie Beach
What an absolute blast this trip was. There are different tour options available but we chose to go with the Northern Exposure tour. This gives you the chance to snorkel at two different sites, a visit to Hill Inlet which includes a guided bush walk to some epic lookouts and then you get to have lunch on Whitehaven beach.
The boat ride itself was so much fun as it speeds along zig zagging between islands until you get to the desired locations. The snorkel spots were both terrific and you spend about 45mins at each spot. They swap and change the spots depending on conditions for the day.
The visit to Hill Inlet was spectacular. We could have stood there all day observing the shifting sands that create the most amazing colours. After Hill Inlet you then park up on a beautiful spot on Whitehaven Beach. This beach is amazing with beautiful white sand and crystal clear water. Again we could have stayed on this beach all day.
The boat ride back to harbour was a lot of fun. The music is pumping and you get to catch up with the rest of the fleet and ride their wake. The boys thought this was the best fun.
