Absolutely beautiful. Enjoyed everything about it.

The staff was kind. The tour with the boat was an adventure. The trip was well organized. On our way to Whitsundays, we saw whales and the captain would always stop for that kind of miracle. On the way back there were really delicious snacks. I recommend choosing the afternoon tour.

We chose the half day afternoon cruise and enjoyed a beautiful sunset on the way back to Airlie Beach

We chose to do the afternoon half day tour to Whitehaven Beach and it was absolutely fantastic! The cruise with Cruise Whitsundays was very well organised and the crew were very friendly and helpful. We left at 11.35am and went via Daydream and Hamilton Island before arriving at Whitehaven Beach around 2pm. After leaving Hamilton Island, the open water was very choppy but the Captain gave us ample warning about what it would be like and how long it would last and during the choppy water, the crew were circling around the passengers making sure everyone was OK. Once we arrived, it was a very easy process transferring from the catamaran to the shore. We had 2 his to enjoy on the beach and Cruise Whitsundays provided lots of free water activities to choose from including stand up paddle boards. Stingers suits were also available free of charge. At 3pm, one of the crew brought out fish food and we were able to sit in the water and have fish come swimming around us as they ate the food! The afternoon tea was a buffet style with a lovely selection of food to choose from. Cruise Whitsundays had a good COVID safe strategy in place and the crew were meticulous in their cleaning and sanitising on board. There was also a friendly photographer who took photos on the beach. Great quality and value $30 for 3 photos. Our little family had a wonderful time and highly recommend Cruise Whitsundays.

Afternoon cruise to Whitehaven Beach : overall very enjoyable experience.

Crew are friendly and funny. Not the best value for money though as it's more like a ferry service to the beach with 2 stops to pick up more people. A beach bbq or a bit of time to look around the 2 Islands we stopped at would would have been greatly appreciated.
