Give us one day and Magic Whitsundays Adventure Cruises will give you memories to last a lifetime!

Magic Whitsundays is an owner operated, family run local business, happily operating in Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday islands for over 20 years.

The team is headed by Rob from Adelaide who is a creative and talented boat builder, a local artist whose paintings were inspired by his years spent skippering Habibi and Big Fury, who excels in unique designs, mechanics and engineering and who also loves the great outdoors, nature and animals. Rob inherited his great culinary skills from the Italian side of the family and great business sense from his Armenian genes!

His partner in crime is Dianne, who arrived in Australia over 20 years ago as a young backpacker from Ireland, who has a passion and flair for hospitality, cooking, and organising social events. Dianne’s travel bug has taken her to many far-flung destinations, where she has learned the secrets of what cultural awareness, environmental sustainability, and customer service really means.

These great attributes from Rob and Dianne inspire the unique, spirited, and energic crew which make up part of our team.

We want to share with you the wonders of the Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef.

Our two unique tours have a high focus on exceeding guest expectations, providing quality and distinct experiences through a combination of our carefully selected energetic and professional crew, delicious and plentiful fresh food, comfortable and spacious well-maintained vessels, personalised service, high safety standards, all combined together creating a truly memorable and individual experience
