If a passenger has an allergy other than a nut allergy, we recommend that they take note of the menu.&nbsp;If it&rsquo;s not satisfactory please feel free to bring additional food and snacks and we will&nbsp;happily place them in our cold esky.

The vessels&nbsp;are all stable catamarans, which means they don&rsquo;t roll as much as other vessels in the Whitsundays. You&rsquo;re less likely to get seasick on&nbsp;Thundercat&nbsp;than on a monohull. We cannot predict how your body will react on the vessels and some passengers still get sick. We advise that you take a seasickness tablet 30 minutes before stepping on board.

Yes, you can for the boat portion only.&nbsp; No glass or red wine permitted

A pregnancy waiver must be signed before travel for all pregnant passengers. We are happy for anyone to travel who has been approved by a doctor to be fit and healthy in their second trimester.

If you are in your first or third trimester, we&nbsp;would need a doctor&rsquo;s certificate before travelling. It is up to the skipper&rsquo;s decision on the day&nbsp;they are happy for you to travel, depending on the weather conditions that day. Safety for mum and baby is our highest priority.

Experience a once-in-a-lifetime Whitsundays adventure that visits world-class locations including Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Lookout, and offers two snorkelling opportunities on the fringing Great Barrier Reef&nbsp;in just one day!&nbsp;Join an exhilarating ride around the Whitsunday Islands in comfort and style on one of the fastest catamarans in the Whitsundays, which has&nbsp;been designed for stability and speed so it&rsquo;s perfect for passengers who are concerned about seasickness.

&nbsp;

Depart from the Coral Sea Marina at 9 am and travel to Tongue Bay on Whitsunday Island, the largest island of the Whitsunday group. This is the ideal spot from which to embark on a guided bush walk to Hill Inlet Lookout. Take in the spectacular panoramic views of the white-sand beach and its swirling sands as the tide shifts. Don&rsquo;t forget your camera, as this is a great opportunity to take photos!

&nbsp;

The next must-see stop is&nbsp;Whitehaven Beach, where you will spend up to two hours strolling along the famous sandy stretches, checking out the amazing scenery, and soaking away your worries in the refreshing turquoise water. This award-winning beach is 7km long and is famous for its crystal clear waters and perfect 98% silica white sand.

&nbsp;

Along the way, you&rsquo;ll enjoy fresh-baked&nbsp;morning tea and a buffet&nbsp;lunch while you cruise.&nbsp;You&rsquo;re also welcome to BYO alcoholic drinks, although there&rsquo;s no glass or red wine permitted.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Having spent time on land, it&rsquo;s time to head under the sea. You&rsquo;ll visit two snorkelling locations on the fringing Great Barrier Reef. The first stop is Stonehaven Bay, a beautiful location on the northeast side of Whitsunday Island. The bay offers beautiful coral and marine life and is one of the quietest snorkelling spots in the Whitsundays.

&nbsp;

Your second stop at&nbsp;Mantaray Bay is one of the most popular snorkelling locations, situated on the northern tip of Hook Island. The bay boasts&nbsp;an array of underwater valleys, caves and different fish types.

&nbsp;

As you head back to Airlie Beach, enjoy an afternoon tea of fresh fruit kebabs while you travel, returning at approximately 5 pm.
