2 Hour Guided Jet Ski Around Magnetic Island from Townsville

The journey, in full

Other than an experience of a lifetime, you will see some of the most picturesque scenery that North Queensland has to offer. Whilst on tour, you could expect to see the unique marine life that inhabits The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, which includes some of the following species: Turtles, dolphins, dugongs, whales, and many other forms of aquatic marine life. Your voyage to Magnetic Island commences as you take in an aspect of Castle Hill and Townsville from the water whilst continuing along to Kissing Point before altering course towards Magnetic Island and covering areas of the bay that are composed of underwater reef structure, Virago Shoal and Middle Reef. It is then that we reach the historical shipwreck known as the SS Adelaide (Steam Ship Adelaide). Whilst continuing in a northerly direction, you can experience the calm waters of Cleveland Bay that are sheltered by Magnetic Island, whilst voyaging to the most North-Western tip of Magnetic Island known as West Point. This picturesque little island consists of rocky outcrops, native grasses, and abundant sea-going Avarians. The history of Bay Rock was that of one which was owned by the government and used solely for lighthouse purposes. Continuing to circumnavigate Magnetic Island, traveling in a North-Easterly direction will lead you to encounter the unique landscape that makes up Five Beach Bay. Very few frequent these beautiful beaches as it requires a little bit of effort to get there. Approximately a kilometer or so west of popular Horseshoe Bay, these beaches are only accessible by boat and are part of the National Park, meaning tropical fish, turtles, and even dugongs are abundant. This location is also home to many tropical waterfalls and naturally formed swimming holes that are utilized by locals and visitors alike. The next location that you will encounter is Horseshoe Bay, which is a haven for many visiting vessels and is an extremely popular location on the island where locals, tourists, and visitors alike enjoy the sandy beaches, calm waters, protection of the swimming enclosure, eateries, cafes, restaurants, and beachside accommodation and local island weekend day markets. On the South-Eastern side of the island, within proximity, lies a cluster of granite boulders that is named Orchard Rocks. This structure consists of many boulders that would appear to be free-standing or balanced on top of one another, and poses some thought as to how it was created and remains in its current form. The southern side of the island is the gateway to the commercial harbor of Nelly Bay, which enables fast ferries and barges owned and operated by Sealink that ferry locals, visitors, and tourists to Magnetic Island. This location supports 5-star resort-style accommodation such as Pepper on Blue and is the hub to be able to jump aboard a local dive boat and travel to the outer reef for activities such as snorkeling and diving. Travelling in a Westerly direction, we reach the most Southern-Western tip of the island, namely Picnic Bay, which is host to sandy beaches, calm waters, protection of the swimming enclosure, eateries, cafes, restaurants, and beachside accommodation, it also host one of the longest private jetties that many locals and visitors alike utilize for relaxing, taking in the sights and a spot of fishing. Once departing Picnic Bay, we Jet Ski from Magnetic Island heading towards the mainland, where we return to the haven of the Townsville Breakwater Marina.
