Explore a true paradise by sea & air by taking a plane ride over the Whitsunday Islands. After enjoying the incredible landscapes from a bird's eye view we'll snorkel in the turquoise waters of this stunning archipelago.

Whitsunday Islands Plane Ride + Snorkeling

At the time of your choice, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Airlie Beach and head to the Whitsunday Airport. Then, we'll take off and explore a protected natural paradise from the sky.

We will fly over the Whitsunday Island archipelago and the Great Barrier Reef. After an hour's flight, we'll land and take a boat to Whitsunday Island, where you'll have one to two hours of free time at Whitehaven Beach.

You can grab a bite either from food you brought or a picnic lunch purchased on-site. We will go on a hiking route to the Hill Inlet viewpoint for views of the island's beauty and turquoise waters. Then, we will visit one or two snorkeling spots, which may include Whitsunday Island, Hook Island, Border Island, or Dumbell Island.

After a seven and a half hour experience, we will conclude at Coral Sea Marina.

Snorkeling

Your activity may vary based on the option chosen. If you book the option with a single stop for snorkeling, you'll have more time at Whitehaven Beach. Choosing two stops allows for more exploration of underwater life but reduces your beach time by one hour.
