Whitehaven Beach Half-Day Cruises

Amazing beach for a relaxing day out, easy access to the beach from the boat, plenty of free space on the beach, not crowded. Plenty sporting activities provided for young and old by the tour group. Fish feeding great little experience, especially by the kids. Nice cool refreshments available for purchase, great staff

We had such an amazing time on our half day cruise. Despite some crazy weather and rough as guts seas we all really enjoyed it and wished we could have spent more time. The staff were lovely and the free paddleboards, stinger suits and kids sand play items were an added bonus with a 4 year old in tow, plus I got a few good laughs in watching hubby try to stand up paddleboard in the waves. We got the drinks package which was GREAT value being just $30 each for unlimited beer/ciders. Wished we didn't do this on our last day as I would have signed up to do it again. Thanks guys for such a memorable trip!

Felt like we were shipped around for a few hours picking up, stopping multiple times also had to change boats before we finally got dumped at Whitehaven with 75 other people. Overpriced for the service and was not very enjoyable with a young child in tow.

The trip should have been cancelled due to the strong wind warning and rain forecast and the enormous swell, it was not enjoyable to say the least, a very uncomfortable trip to get to Whitehaven and then the return trip was even worse, myself and other passengers were screaming at one point and I thought the vessel was going to capsize! My travel partner and I were very traumatised! It seems your company is only interested in the mighty dollar rather than the safety and comfort of your passengers! Very disappointed and will not be holding back in our relay to others about the overall trip.

the tour guides were amazing throughout the travel to whitehaven beach! was very enjoyable and a good two hours was spent on the beach which was enough due to the sun being so strong. will be recommending to everyone when they travel up to the whitsunday coast - defiantly will be doing this tour again ps - the fun esky was a highlight too

Perfect cruise. We were blessed with great weather & got to see Whitehaven in all its glory. This half day tour was long enough to swim, take plenty of photos & relax in this magical setting. Staff were great & the tour ran seamlessly.

It was great to get a taste of the Whitsundays in the limited time we had in Airlie... Loved whitehaven beach...

During COVID times cancellations happen, so communicating early re cancellations would help travellers. We incurred additional expense of staying due to 2 tour cancellations. Early comma would have helped.

The majority of the day was spent on the boat making several stops before spending 2 hours at Whitehaven. We were told departure was at 6:45am but when we checked in we were told it was 7:15 ( inconsistent information). We didn’t get to Whitehaven until just after 9 due to the three stops at daydream, Hamilton airport then ganiktoh marina. Whitsunday Island was incredible however it is disappointing that we only got a glimpse of Hill inlet prior to landing on the far southern end of Whitehaven Beach. This tour does not provide enough time to go for a hike to the lookout. A very basic morning tea buff a style was available prior to disembarking, however it was just tiny muffins a couple of pieces of fruit and some tubs of yoghurt and muesli. The trip back was similar to the trip over, we left Whitehaven at 11:45 am and didn’t get back to Port of Airlie until approximately 2 pm. What I was very disappointed in however was the skippers attitude towards the enforcement of COVID-19 government rules. As a position of authority his comments and remarks about enforcement of mask wearing came across as passive aggressive, negative and reluctant and unprofessional. Mask wearing within the vessel was mandatory and that his crew had been instructed to enforce it however this did not happen, there were dozens of people who simply chose not to put a mask on even after being told they had to. The crew simply walked around the vessel looking at people but not saying anything to them. Whitsunday Island it self is a spec tacular place to visit and I have used other two operators before including Ocean rafting, and in future Morceau based on the amount of time it took for us to actually arrive at Whitsunday Island probably won’t choose cruise Whitsundays again.

The water was crystal clear and the sand was amazing. Wanted to see it for myself instead of looking at photos. Loved it.
