Whiteheave X press-The best choice on this holiday
Mary_F
, Dec 2021
We really really enjoy this trip with X press. BBQ is much more suitable for our taste rather than buffet on the ship. Also, we could enjoy the freedom, choose what we really prefer. We choose not go to first bushwalking’s, staying on the beach so nice. My daughter doesn’t want to leave at all. No rush, so enjoy the time.
What a beautiful day...

Great day out to a beautiful destination. The day was punctuated by a tasty bar-b-q lunch at Whitehaven Beach. The bush walks to the lookouts were absolutely worth the effort of all the steps. Beautiful scenery and with the sun shining, it was an absolute picture!
Highly recommended

On this trip you can see whitehaven Beach from different sides: from two outlooks, from the sea and actually standing on the beach. The trip is very well organised. The food is very good: lovely snacks on the boat and a great barbecue on the beach. Ther was time for snorkling. Stingersuits were provided.

Amazing tour!
Brittany_S
, Jan 2020
I chose this tour out of the many we researched because it was a bargain and allowed 3+ hours of personal beach time. I wanted this time rather than being construed to a strict schedule like other tours offer. Also loved the family-oriented crew on board and how they looked after all of us that day. A very well organised tour with a great, chilled out crew and great offerings.
It was perfect

This was a fun day or snorkeling...
Dawn Marie G
, Dec 2017
This was a fun day or snorkeling, site seeing and swimming. The BBQ was fantastic and the tour guides were personable and helpful. Unfortunately, the coral is pretty bleached and we didn't see too many different types of marine life although the guides did their best feeding the fish so they would swim closer to where we were snorkeling. Definitely pay the 8 for the stinger suit. We saw some massive jellyfish. The day was set so it was the perfect amount of activity and time to relax. I would highly recommend.

Very disappointed with this one...

Very disappointed with this one.
Rushed to and from the hill inlet by the tour operator, had less than 5 minutes (of an 8hr day) to take photos over Whitehaven (which is the whole point of going there).
The "glass bottom boat" is a tiny window in the bottom of a dingy. Couldn't see a thing.
The experience was amazing! Boat...

The experience was amazing! Boat, hike, beach, snokel and lunch were all top notch.
Great crew that obviously like what they do.
One small change would be to organize pickup online. As a tourist calling to arrange pickup is difficult and the was no in town office that we could find to ask. We found it and it was worth it!
The view of Whitehaven beach from...
Quentin M
, Oct 2017
The view of Whitehaven beach from the lookout is just amazing. The BBQ lunch on the beach was also great. We were just a bit disappointed by the snorkelling material. The captain Dan was a fun guy with stories about shark bites and all. Unfortunately the other 2 crew members were borderline rude.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
