Magnetic Island is more than just beautiful beaches — it's a place of hidden wildlife, profound Indigenous heritage, and breathtaking landscapes. This unforgettable journey is carefully timed and curated to help you make the most of your time ashore.
Board a custom-built, all-terrain bus for a smaller-group experience (maximum 26 guests) designed for comfort, personal connection, and deeper discovery.
Head off the typical visitor path and straight into the heart of Magnetic Island, traveling across rugged outback terrain, past secluded bays, and along stunning coastal roads with views that few visitors ever get to see.
Wildlife lovers will be in their element. With your guide's trained eye helping out, you'll spot wild koalas in the treetops, resting in their natural eucalyptus habitat. The adventure continues with a visit to a little-known rock wallaby hotspot — these adorable, elusive creatures are some of the island's most beloved residents, and you'll have the rare chance to observe them up close in their natural environment.
Take in sweeping panoramic views from elevated lookouts, with turquoise waters, quiet beaches, and dramatic headlands stretching in every direction.
Magnetic Island's magic is deeply rooted in its stories. This island has been home to the Wulgurukaba people for thousands of years. Hear about their connection to the land, native bush tucker, and how they thrived in this island paradise long before modern development.
Explore Magnetic Island's lesser-known role in World War II, visiting former military sites and coastal lookouts.
Refuel at the SeaSalt Arcade — a beachfront hideaway that is home to the laid-back Lava Lava Café and the award-winning Maggie Brewery. A delicious, locally inspired lunch is served with ocean views, island breezes, and a chillaxed vibe.
On the rugged west coast, UNESCO World Heritage Site landscapes meet the edge of the Coral Sea. Take a moment here to reflect on the wild and wonderful contrasts of Magnetic Island.
