Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Pilgrim Magnetic Island, 123 Sooning St, Nelly Bay QLD 4819, Australia

Our friendly skipper during your briefing will check in with you to find out which three bays you are keen to visit during the experience. Based on local knowledge you'll receive some recommendations, as well, based on the conditions of the day. E.g. during the wet season, Huntingfield Bay may be a great option as the waterfall may be running. There are around eight to ten beaches to choose from, so your experience will be tailored to you (and the conditions on the day).

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Arthur Bay, Magnetic Island, Queensland 4819 Australia

On your experience, you'll stop at three different bays, one for snorkelling, one for swimming (and/or snorkelling) and one for a delicious picnic lunch. There are a few snorkelling spots to choose from but Arthur Bay and Florence Bay are firm favourites. Arthur Bay with spectacular coral and the lettuce garden and Florence Bay, also with coral and an array of colourful fish. If you prefer to see some giant clams we can stop at Geoffrey Bay, where you'll also see the Moltke Wreck.

Duration: 1 hour

Pass By: Magnetic Island, Magnetic Island, Queensland

While travelling between bays, the skipper will be showing you the highlights of the Magnetic Island coastline and spotting some of the local wildlife for you too.

Stop At: Florence Bay, Magnetic Island, Queensland Australia

You can choose where you want to stop for your second swim (or snorkel). Florence Bay is a popular choice, but there are several bays to choose from for your second swimming spot. Your skipper will help you make that decision based on local knowledge and conditions combined with any requests you may have.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Radical Bay, Magnetic Island, Queensland Australia

Radical Bay is a firm favourite for a picnic stop. Your skipper will set up a giant picnic rug and a beach cabana for shade and leave you to relax and enjoy your delicious picnic lunch and maybe another swim too!

Duration: 1 hour

This was a fantastic experience!!! My husband and I loved it!! We loved Bridie (sp?)!!! She was so knowledgeable, kind, and friendly. Seriously every part of the experience was special!! We saw beautiful coral, so many different kinds of fish of all sizes, a sea turtle, a nurse shark, and parts of a ship wreck while snorkeling. The lunch on the beach was picturesque and so tasty!!! I would recommend this hands down.

This was a fabulous trip with snorkeling in 3 different locations with a gourmet lunch exceeding our expectations. It was a good combo of adventure, relaxation and foodie. Bridie was an informative guide with detailed knowledge of fish, coral and landscape. We would definitely recommend this trip to others.

What an incredible day….absolutely fantastic skipper, Briony was super friendly and helpful…an absolute delight to spend the day with her. She was really knowledgeable about the bays and beaches and very respectful of us old ducks getting in and out of the boat. We had an extraordinary day….highly recommend this experience. The picnic lunch was delicious and we enjoyed the secluded bay and gorgeous views. Thanks again for an amazing day. Tammy and Liz.

My husband, myself and two teenage children had a fantastic experience with the Three Bays in Three Ways tour. It was lots of fun, and really nice to do it with just the four of us. The snorkelling was great, particularly at Florence Bay. A real treat was our lunch on the beach, the bay is beautiful, and the food excellent and very generous. An unexpected highlight was when a small whale come into the bay whilst we were eating our lunch. This really was incredible to see. Thanks Bridie for making the tour both fun and informative. Highly recommend this tour.
