Want the best Whitsundays Experience? ZigZag is a true Full Day Tour meeting at 8 am and returning at 4 pm. Plus it is the fastest boat in the Whitsundays. More time at the islands and the fastest boat means this tour is the #1 way to see the Whitsundays.

ZigZag is a 39ft Naiad boat with 4 engines totalling 1200 horsepower! This means the vessel is fast, yet an extremely comfortable ride, allowing guests of all ages and adventure levels to take part. We limit to just 35 guests, making sure you get the small group experience and include morning tea, lunch and afternoon snacks.

The ZigZag crew are well known as the friendliest tour guides in the Whitsundays. They are all trained in the highest environmental standards by the company’s owner who is a marine biologist trained right here on the Great Barrier Reef.

If you like snorkelling and want to see the beautiful coral of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, then this tour is for you. Our qualified crew choose the best locations that suit the conditions. These locations can include Chalkies Bay, Blue Pearl Bay, Luncheon Bay and Border Island and a secret bay we keep quiet. (you will see why) These tropical waters are filled with tropical fish and turtles year round! These areas of reef are sheltered by the islands and have a large, diverse range of stunning colours and abundant sea life.

Spend up to 2 hours exploring the 97% pure silica white sands of Whitehaven Beach; you will also be served a homemade buffet lunch here and have plenty of time to explore this iconic destination.

On returning from Whitehaven Beach we stop off at Palm Bay Resort on the idyllic Long Island, this is a secluded resort where you will get the opportunity for a relaxing swim in the pool or a drink at the bar for a short while before returning to Airlie beach.

Absolut zu empfehlen

Super Ausflug! Die beiden Schnorchelspots waren richtig toll, wir haben sogar eine Schildkröte gesehen. Die Zeit am Whitehaven Beach war absolut ausreichend. Lediglich ein Besuch bei dem Aussichtspunkt hat mir gefehlt, aber das wussten wir ja vorher, dass der nicht mit inbegriffen ist. Tolle Crew und tolle Stimmung am Board. Kann es nur weiter empfehlen!

Wunderschön und überhaupt nicht stressig.

Ich finde wir haben genug gesehen-man muss ja auch nicht immer alles sehen. Aber ich hätte mir noch den Hill Inlet lookout gewünscht wo man wohl einen fantastischen Blick auf eine Bucht hat.

Toller Tagestrip

Der Ausflug zu den Whitsundays war super schön und gut durchdacht. Es war ein toller Ausflug mit einem jungen Unternehmen, einem leckeren Mittagessen und einer tollen Crew. Nicht zu vergessen beinhaltet der Preis sowohl den Anzug, die Schnorchelausrüstung als auch das Mittagessen.

Mega Tour

Die Tour mit ZigZag war der Wahnsinn. Sehr coole und nette Crew. Gute Mischung aus einer rasanten Speedbootfahrt ,erlebnisreichem Schnorcheln und einem entspannten Lunch am wunderschönem Strand. Würde es immer wieder machen. Nur zu empfehlen. 🤙🏽

Ganz ok, mehr aber nicht

Das Team von Zigzag war gut drauf, der Ausflug aber maximal ok. Schnorchelspots sehr uninteressant, viel totes Riff.
