Mackay and Whitsunday Life

Cruising Around Airlie

Dea, Emma and Ellie from the Tourism Whitsundays team joined the Airlie Beach Cruise ship Ambassadors and Bowen Tourism for a memorable outing with our wonderful friends at Pioneer Adventures. They were treated to a stunning sunset and coral viewing experience, cruising comfortably aboard their glass-bottom boat. This scenic tour is a true highlight, offering a unique perspective of vibrant marine life, all while enjoying the warm glow of the sunset over crystal-clear waters.

The evening was extra special as we celebrated the Cruise Ambassadors, whose dedication and passion help showcase The Whitsundays to thousands of cruise passengers annually. During the busiest month for cruise ships, it was refreshing to see this incredible volunteer group experience our beautiful backyard from a more serene vantage point.

Pioneer Adventures' glass-bottom boat is a great way to explore the underwater beauty of the region without getting wet. The boat allows guests to observe colourful coral gardens and tropical fish, all from the vessel's comfort. As the sun set, the sky transformed into a canvas of brilliant colours, adding a magical touch to the already stunning scenery. It was an unforgettable experience for all and a great way to spend a relaxing evening in The Whitsundays!
