The Whitsundays is made up of 74 tropical islands and is located between the mainland and the Great Barrier Reef which makes it PERFECT for snorkelling! The fast boat of Ocean Rafting visits the swirling sands of Hill Inlet and the world-famous Whitehaven beach (voted on numerous occasions as the world’s BEST beach).

Great service, great experience. We were short on time and they helped us all the way to secure vans for a big group of people. Very kind and understanding. They explained everything to us on our own pace and it‘s such a big help to have somebody who has experience in this topic.

We were drowning in all the possibilities when it comes to renting a van for our new Zealand trip, luckily for us there was lifeguard Thijs from RatPack to safe us. All kidding aside, we were amazed at the great service and contacting RatPack is the best decision we made for our entire half year trip. P.s. ask for Thijs, he was amazing!

Great service!

Just booked out camper trip in Australia through "The Rat Pack travel" and I must admit Gregg made it so easy for us, we gave him our dates and he did all the work of finding a camper van that suited our needs and got it at a great price for us. He was so helpful I would highly recommend the RatPack Teavel 👍🏻💯

Ratpack's Reuben was such a huge help to us. We couldnt find any campervan as all we had contacted were booked and our flight was just a day away. When we gave our scenario, Reuben was very patient and worked tirelessly to get a camper for us ASAP and kept in contact with us via calls n whatsapp giving us what options he could find. He found a camper for us in just a few hours. thanks so much! Truly appreciate ur work! -Isaac

Gregg was great help! We received help instantly, to find the best deal on vans in the southern island! At no extra charge! Infact we saved our selves over $2000-2500 by picking up and dropping off in a different city and then an additional discount from the company! Couldn’t recommend enough! Gregg really toke the work out of it for us!

Grateful service and super fast

Itinerary:

The Southern Lights tour offers three days in one, including an exhilarating ride to Whitehaven Beach, pristine snorkelling reefs and guided Whitsunday Island National Parks walks. Ocean Rafting offers the ultimate access to the stunning and iconic Hill Inlet beach, and special snorkel sites ensure a memorable underwater experience. The Southern Lights tour visits both the northern and southern ends of Whitehaven Beach. Enjoy approximately two hours relaxing on the world famous white silica sand and enjoy a guided bushwalk to spectacular Hill Inlet Lookout to view and capture photographs of the stunning swirling silica sands and aqua water. Snorkel for over an hour at Border Island, Dumbell Island or one of our “secret” snorkel spots, enjoying the amazing hard and soft corals of the fringing reefs. The main difference between Ocean Rafting’s two tours is that the Southern Lights has more beach time and the Northern Exposure offers more snorkelling time.

Inclusions:

  • Snorkel equipment
  • A full day at the Whitsundays!
