Hill Inlet is at the northern end of Whitehaven Beach and is known for the Hill Inlet Lookout walk. Tours that include Hill Inlet usually combine beach time + a guided or self-guided bushwalk to the viewpoint (tides and timing can affect access).
Airlie Beach vs Hamilton Island departures (choosing the best starting point for your Whitsundays tour). Best for: Airlie Beach Whitsundays tours, Hamilton Island day tours, and comparing departure points. Airlie Beach departures (Port of Airlie / Abel Point Marina) offer the widest range of Whitsundays day tours and overnight sailing trips and are ideal if you’re travelling via the mainland. Hamilton Island departures are the most convenient option if you’re staying on the island or flying into Hamilton Island Airport (HTI), with a more resort-style, streamlined start to your tour.
Best for: coral, fish, turtles, underwater photos
What to expect: Most Whitsundays tours snorkel fringing reefs around the islands (often places like Hook Island bays). These are typically not the Outer Great Barrier Reef, but still excellent for first-time snorkellers.
Posted on MajaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked my trip along the east coast of Australia through Dundee Adventure Travel and had an amazing experience. As it was my first solo trip, I was really glad to have them by my side—their support was invaluable from start to finish. The planning was easy and perfectly tailored to me, with great recommendations and carefully chosen hostels in excellent locations. The team was always easy to reach, both before and during the trip, and incredibly helpful with any questions or changes. That constant sense of security and reliability made the whole journey much more relaxed and enjoyable. Thanks to Dundee Adventure Travel, I was able to fully enjoy my time in Australia without stress. I’d highly recommend them and would book with them again anytime!Posted on Alejandro RiveraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best in the business. As a group of 4, we needed a last minute booking to go on a tour to Whitehaven and they sort out us out smoothly. Price was best we could find too. Luka was super friendly and professional. All the info was sent to us promptly and we had the best time on the island thanks to them. Definitely contacting them for future adventures. 🤙🤙Posted on Valeria DetzelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an amazing experience booking my Outback adventure through this travel agency! A huge thank you to Luca for going above and beyond to find the perfect trip tailored to my needs. He took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and made the whole process effortless. The itinerary was spot-on, everything from the destinations to the pace of the tour was just right. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this agency (and especially Luca!) to anyone planning their next Australian adventure!Posted on Annie bradburyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dundee adventure is an exceptional agency! I recently booked a trip to Airlie Beach for a long weekend and it was absolutely incredible. We had never been before so let them organise a few things for us such as a Jetski tour and the ocean rider cruise to the Whitsunday beach and I will never forget it. Their knowledge and approachability was absolutely unmatched, highly recommend!Posted on Fabienne OudahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Immer noch begeistert!

Das Team von Dundee Adventure Travel hat für mich und meine Bedürfnisse die perfekte Reise zusammen gestellt. Absolut zu empfehlen !Posted on Jaroslav HylmarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. During my three-month study stay on the Sunshine Coast, I used Dundee Travel Agency exclusively for trips around East Cost of Australia. Their services were always excellent. Everything was planned from A to Z Not just tips for trips, but everything: airline tickets, hotel reservations, schedules, etc. They even organized an amazing ten-day vacation in Fiji for me and my son, which we will never forget. Many thanks especially to Luca.
