Southern Lights Tour

Ocean Rafting, a multi-award winning tour company in the Whitsundays, offers Scenic Cruises that provide a unique experience of the natural beauty of the Great Barrier Reef and Whitsundays in QLD. With special permits to visit protected areas in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Ocean Rafting takes you on a journey to the ''Wild Side'' of the Whitsunday Islands.

The Southern Lights tour is the perfect Whitehaven Beach experience, with approximately two hours of relaxation at the southern end of the 7km stretch of Whitehaven Beach, and a guided bushwalk to the stunning Hill Inlet Lookout at the northern end. Here, you can capture photographs of the swirling silica sands and aqua water, and enjoy direct access to the iconic Hill Inlet beach.

Ocean Rafting''s semi-rigid inflatable vessels are the fastest day boats in the Whitsundays, offering an adventurous ride, covering distances in a shorter time, and leaving more time for activities. With over an hour of snorkelling at one of their ''secret'' snorkel spots, you can explore the fringing reefs, colorful fish, turtles, clams, and other marine life.

The main difference between Ocean Rafting''s two tours is that the Northern Exposure offers more snorkeling time, while the Southern Lights has more beach time. With We Wander, you can book these experiences with confidence, knowing that Ocean Rafting has been operating since 1997 and providing personalized service, snorkel lessons, and guided National Park walks in the Whitsunday Islands.

Ocean Rafting''s Scenic Cruises offer a fun-filled adventure amongst the natural beauty of the Whitsundays, and We Wander is proud to partner with them to bring you this unique experience. So come and discover the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef and Whitsundays with Ocean Rafting, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
