Sample Itinerary
Sailing
As soon as Camira leaves the marina, setting the sails becomes the top priority. See how the crew use a combination of manual technique and powerful mechanical winches to pull up the mammoth sails to cruise through the calm Whitsunday waters. As you cruise along, you can relax on the bow nets, lounge on the comfortable seats or seek out the snacks in the spacious interior cabin. Camira is designed for comfort and space to make sure you have the best day on the water.
Snorkelling
Take the time to enjoy the beautiful underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park while on board Camira. Your crew will take you to one of the many fringing reefs around the Whitsunday Islands where you'll get to hop in and check out the amazing marine life that waits below. With stinger suits, snorkelling equipment and floatation devices included, everyone can enjoy all the beauty of the underwater gardens. Keep an eye out for all the amazing marine life found in the Whitsundays including Maori Wrasse, clownfish, stingrays and sea turtles.
Hill Inlet Lookout and Whitehaven Beach
Join in on a bushwalk up to Hill Inlet Lookout and check out the amazing view from the top. See Whitehaven Beach from above and the amazing swirling sands below! This is the perfect place to grab some amazing photos and take in all the beauty that nature has to offer. The bushwalk up to the lookout point will give you a chance to get up close and personal with the flora and fauna on Whitsunday Island, listening to the sounds of the wildlife and keeping an eye out for the cool creatures that live there!
