Description
The Big Fury tour will get you to the Whitsundays and Whitehaven Beach in a third of the time it takes some other vessels. Big Fury was constructed expressly for sight-seeing in the Whitsunday Islands, and half the pleasure is getting there and back.
Our crew provides an educational and amusing commentary about the several “Picture Postcard Islands” we visit along the way. And we only carry a maximum of 35 guests—young and old—to offer a more individualized Whitsundays experience.
Departures
- Big Fury leaves Coral Sea Marina every day at 10:00 a.m. and
- Returns at 5:00 p.m.
With the Big Fury tour, you can visit the Whitsunday Islands’ top attractions, including Whitehaven Beach, where you can take your time to take in the view and eat a lovely picnic lunch right there on the sand. Enjoy the picture-perfect landscape at the Hill Inlet lookout to see Whitehaven Beach’s whirling sands. And then let us transport you to a fantastic island reef spot where you can swim among thousands of tropical fish and stunning corals in crystal-clear seas just feet from the islands.
Highlights
Whitehaven Beach
Renowned as one of the top 10 beaches in the world! Big Fury gives you 2–2.5 hours at the southern end of Whitehaven Beach. Imagine yourself swimming in pristine, turquoise-colored waters, relaxing and soaking up the beauty of your surroundings, or walking on the soft white silica sands of Whitehaven Beach.
