Overview

Most Whitehaven day boats serve lunch onboard. Big Fury serves it on Whitehaven Beach itself, a fresh buffet on one of the world's top-ten beaches, which is the kind of detail kids remember at Christmas and adults mention for years.

The boat is an open-air sports vessel running three 300hp outboards, fast, smooth, and diesel-fume-free, departing Coral Sea Marina at 10am and back by 5pm. The day's shape is generous: 2 to 2.5 full hours at Whitehaven's quieter southern end, the guided walk up to Hill Inlet Lookout for the swirling-sands panorama, and a snorkel stop at a fringing reef site (chosen by tide and weather) with the full kit provided, masks, fins, stinger suits, floatation, even a coral viewer for the littlest crew members.

This is the family option: suitable from age 3 up, max 35 aboard, with afternoon cakes and courtesy bus transfers (book 24 hours ahead). Bring cash for cold drinks and towels for everyone.

Common questions about this trip

  • What's the cancellation policy?

    Cancelling less than 24 hours before departure forfeits the full price. Cruises are subject to weather and the skipper's call. Wanderlust handles the refund for you, refunds mirror the operator's terms 1:1 (including if the operator cancels) and we chase it on your behalf.
