Sensational trip!

Published on Jan, 2025

Spectacular day! Breathtaking scenery in stunning locations. The food was great and the crew - Sam, Matty and Dan - were fantastic. Well worth the choppy ride out! Would 100% recommend this tour and would do it again!

Great / relaxing experience

Published on Jan, 2025

We have been to many tours before and we wanted to try something new. As we expected, small boat 30 -40 ?? people but comfy, do not expect luxury. Hill inlet not enough time to see the viewing platforms and swim, extra 15 -20min would fix it. BBQ and walks excellent, crew very friendly and approachable, the young lad was very confident and knowledgeable. Overall great / relaxing experience, most definitely would recommend Whitehaven Xpress to my friend and I would use them again. victor

Great team!!

Whitsundays with Xpress.

Published on Jan, 2025

Nice enjoyable trip with Captain Dan/Cook, jess and Sam. All the family loved this amazing experience to Whitsundays Island. Great bbq, refreshments and stunning views. Well Recommended.

Amazing Whitehaven day out

Published on Dec, 2024

Simply amazing day hosted by a true family business where you genuinely feel the customer comes first in all that they do. There are many options to do Whitehaven but looking around at the antics of the rest, we know there is only one boat to book!!
