What are people saying about Airlie Beach

Narelle_X, Jul 2026

It was a great experience...

It was a great experience especially for people who want to be in the water but like the safer option. To see coral in its natural habitat is absolutely beautiful. The host Sarah knew her information and I was very impressed about the knowledge she shared with the group. The team had a great vibe from pick up at Airlie Beach Hotel to the tour and back. I also recommend this is a great tour for children as well.

Happy days

We had an amazing day, had choppy start, but once we arrived at snorkeling spot it was nice and calm. Great snorkeling. The crew was so much fun and took good care of us, very helpful and friendly, absolutely loved Captain's sense of humor. Thank you for fun day!

Fly Raft Package: Whitehaven Beach, Snorkel and Scenic Flight

Jiahui_F, Jul 2026

Excellent Service with a Few Suggestions

We had a great experience overall. A big thank you to Owen and Tim’s team for their excellent service. The hotel pick-up and drop-off were very well organized and made the trip easy and convenient. The only downside was that the lunch could be improved, as it was not very tasty. Also, the speedboat ride was extremely rough, and we got completely soaked by the waves. It would be great if there were an option to choose a larger boat, especially for elderly travelers or those who are prone to seasickness. Overall, we still had a wonderful day and appreciate the team’s hard work.

Nathan_W, Jul 2026

Great experience and a great crew

This tour accommodates all levels from those who stay in the tender to experienced swimmers. The crew were great managing all that. Gear issues, dietary challenges, language barriers, they were great and handled it all with a smile and a kind word. Can’t say enough about the super professional crew of Mark, Jayde, and Matilda!

Whitehaven Beach Tour: 2 Options - All Day Beach Or Snorkel

Zig zagging to Whitehaven Beach!

Very organised, small, family run business. Friendly, professional staff, especially the female USA members of the crew. My kids and I felt very safe and well looked after the entire day, including when snorkellingin the water near Chalkies Reef/beach. The reef wildlife underwater was extraordinary. My kids and I were flabbergasted by the beauty of the coral reef and fishes too. Lots of delicious fresh food and ice cold water throughout the day. The locations are stunning! Must do the walk to top of Whitsunday National Park for incredible view. The best day out! Would book with Zig Zag again in a heartbeat. Thank you crew for the best day out. Highly recommended! *****

I had an amazing time on...

I had an amazing time on the Whitsundays day cruise today! Everything was well organised, and the experience was absolutely unforgettable.

Zhenghao_L, Mar 2026

The unforgettable scenery

Fantastic journey! Highly recommended Whitehaven Beach and the Great Barrier Reef were absolutely breathtaking. The sand at Whitehaven Beach was unbelievably soft and pure, and the colors of the water looked almost unreal. The reef from above was stunning, with endless shades of blue and beautiful natural patterns. Everything felt peaceful, vibrant, and unforgettable. It was one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, and the whole experience truly felt like a dream.

Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Day Trip

An absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Day Trip exceeded all expectations. My tour guide was amazing — knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly clear in his explanations, which made the whole day both relaxing and informative. He took the time to ensure everyone felt comfortable and engaged, answering questions and sharing insights along the way. The scenery was breathtaking, and the tour was very well organised. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a memorable and well-guided Whitsundays experience!!!

Airlie Beach Sunset Cruise

sarah_b, Dec 2025

Lovely afternoon well...

Lovely afternoon well spent for an excellent price. Crew was lovely and captain was very friendly! Champs were flowing and music was bumping. Great portion size on the nibblies… the other previous cruises must have had a very hungry bunch! (as per the reviews) as our cruise had some left over! Nibblies were much more than meagre. Would go again :)

Whitsunday Islands Sail, SUP & Snorkel Tour-Small group

Peter_M, Nov 2025

Great day out highly recommended

Wings is a professionally run activity. We had only 10 people on the boat which was a bonus, but even the 25 usual would be fine. It is a big cat. Excellent fruit and savoury platters soon after boarding, pod coffee and big tea selection. Bring your own alcohol and soft drinks, lots of fridges to keep it cold. Good snorkelling near Langford Reef. Terrific lunch. Sailed home. All up a great day. We are a mid 60s couple.

1hour Scenic Flight Heart Reef, Whitehaven Beach, Hill Inlet, GBR

Jennifer_B, Nov 2025

Leaves you speechless

This is a sensational experience. Just amazing. We were fortunate to be blessed with a sensational day. The pilot was knowledgeable and informative. Be aware that if you have any mobility issues or you are physically big, the planes are small and space is tight. It is what it is and that is what allows you to have the experience. If there was a spare seat on a flight after ours I would’ve done it again in a heartbeat.
