Hinchinbrook Explorer with Sunset

Cardwell to Lucinda

This is our most popular tour option! Begin your day by driving yourself to Hinchinbrook Cove Marina, where you'll be collected at 11:00 AM. From there, board the Hi Tours vessel for an unforgettable 110 km journey through the Hinchinbrook Island Channel, surrounded by stunning scenery and abundant wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for crocodiles as you cruise this beautiful waterway.

You'll pass through the “Deluge Inlet” and around Haycock Island, before reaching the impressive Lucinda Sugar Loading Jetty.

Lucinda to Cardwell

While remaining aboard, you’ll cruise back towards Cardwell, stopping at one of the Hinchinbrook Island beachfront camps to enjoy a delicious afternoon tea. Photographers will love capturing the changing light as it transforms the landscape during the return journey.

We will return you to Hinchinbrook Cove Marina around 6:00 PM, where your vehicle awaits, having experienced a stunning North Queensland sunset aboard the boat.
