Ocean Rafting Whitsundays offers the ride of your life on these unique, semi rigid inflatable vessels. Have the most fun, adventure and education amongst the natural beauty of the Whitsundays. Ocean Rafting in the Whitsundays is a small group tour. With just 32 guests on board. You can even enjoy a personal snorkelling lesson!
Choose one of our two daily tours
The Northern Exposure eco adventure is a favourite for Ocean Rafting zealous snorkellers. Including two different snorkel destinations around Hook Island. Visit the stunning Whitehaven Beach, with a guided National Park walk to the Hill inlet lookout.
The Southern Lights tour visits both the ends of the 7km Whitehaven Beach. Enjoy at least two hours relaxing on the white silica sand. Take a walk to Hill Inlet lookout and learn about the islands with your guide. Snorkel for over an hour at one of our “secret” snorkel spots, see the amazing marine life and corals of the fringing reefs.
The difference between Ocean Rafting’s two tours is that the Northern Exposure offers more snorkelling time and the Southern Lights has more beach time. Or book both over two days and save!
