Whitsunday Bullets itinerary will vary based on the tide and prevailing weather conditions. We plan the daily itinerary around the high tides at Tongue Bay for ease of access for guests to the Hill Inlet Lookout walk and also considering the best snorkelling location based on the winds and likely visibility. Some days the itinerary is reversed, starting in the morning at the north end of the Whitsundays and then heading to Whitehaven Beach in the afternoon. If the weather changes and strong winds come in the Captain may change the itinerary for the safety and well being of guests, crew and the vessel during the day.
