Itinerary

Your day kicks off bright and early from Port of Airlie. As you step aboard the vibrant Camira, you’ll be greeted with a warm smile and a light breakfast to fuel your adventures.

First up, it’s time to set sail towards Whitehaven Beach, carving across the turquoise waters at thrilling speeds. The crew hoist the sails and soon you’re beachside at the northern end of Whitehaven, famous for its pure silica sands. Here, you’ll have a few hours to sink your toes into the sand, swim, or just lay back and soak it all in.

Next, it’s on to the guided bushwalk up to Hill Inlet Lookout. It’s a bit of a sweaty climb — lots of stairs! — but the view over the swirling sands is worth every step. Cameras ready, mates!

After working up an appetite, it’s back on board for a drool-worthy BBQ feast — think juicy prawns, fresh salads, and more.

In the afternoon, Camira takes you to one of the Whitsundays’ fringing reefs for a snorkel. Splash into a colourful underwater world packed with vibrant corals and tropical fish.

Finally, it’s time to kick back with a cold drink as you sail home under the afternoon sun — if you’re lucky, you might even spot humpback whales during the winter months!

Reviews

Travellers rave about Camira for good reason! Guests love the chilled vibe of the boat, the endless supply of food and drinks, and the attentive, genuinely fun crew. The hike to Hill Inlet Lookout gets a special shoutout for its “absolutely breathtaking” views, even though it’s a bit of a workout. Many say it’s the best day they’ve ever had in the Whitsundays — and that’s saying something!

The only occasional feedback? Some days the Hill Inlet walk can’t happen due to tides, but the crew always whip up awesome alternatives.

What to Bring

• Swimmers and a towel
• Light, breathable clothing (plus a long-sleeve top for sun protection)
• Hat and sunnies
• Reef-safe sunscreen
• Sturdy sandals or thongs (for the bushwalk — barefoot is rough!)
• A reusable water bottle
• Camera or GoPro for those magic moments
• A credit card for any extra purchases on board

Local tip: The sun can be brutal out there — even on cloudy days. Slip, slop, slap and reapply often!
