For you, that means lots of time snorkelling and exploring the beautiful bays of Magnetic Island that are only accessible by a boat of our design

THE CHOICES ARE YOURS...

  • We have our suggested itinerary for your charter, however the weather conditions and tides will also affect the options on any particular day
Our tours and charters offer fantastic secret snorkel locations, fun fishing, history and stories to share and interaction with fish and bird life.

Our tours are all about connecting you with this beautiful Island. We know our Island home, we have grown up here! We are a friendly family run business, and we love sharing this beautiful Island we have called our home for over 35 years. Come and spend a day doing what we love!
