Whitsundays Fly & Raft Package Reviews

4.7 Rating 174 Reviews
The 1 hour scenic flight over the Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef was insane! You get a different perspective from above and the aerial shots of the reef are unreal! Ocean Rafting are possibly the only, or one of the very few that do the scenic flight from Whitsunday Airport (10min drive from Airlie Beach town) as most others do it from Proserpine Airport which is about 40 minutes from the town. So that is awesome! After getting transferred to the Marina we hopped on the Ocean Rafting boat, Riptide, and gunned it to Hook Island for a really awesome snorkel stop then on to Hill Inlet and Whitehaven Beach. Conditions couldn't have been better! Such a great day. Lunch was quality, the crew were so lovely and fun and happy to take pics of everyone. The Ocean Rafting fly and raft package is the best way to do the Whitsundays if you only have 1 day. Can't recommend it enough.

We chose this organization because it was highly rated on TripAdvisor and we were quite disappointed. The tour only last 5 hours so the stops in the different points are very less. But the vogas part is that you have to pay for everything on the boat.

Don't be upset if it is raining at Airlie Beach area. We had the same situation at that day but after the flight took us to the reef it magically became a sunny day! The view was amazing and I couldn't believe what I have seen! Definitely one of the places we must visit in our life time!

We went on the Island Explorer and Reef flight and thoroughly explored every single part of it. Our pilot was lovely and shared his knowledge about the islands with us throughout the whole flight, pointing out the perfect photo opportunities. We are so glad we choose GSL aviation and would definitly suggest them to everyone!
