Adventure, marine life and snorkelling on Magentic Island
Adventure Life
Find yourself basking in the warmth of the sunniest destination in
Australia. The great weather is just one reason to enjoy the great
outdoors with the adventure activities on the island.
Water sports are popular all year round. Plunge into the tranquil waters, or snorkel along the fringing reef and explore the island shipwreck trail. Go on a scuba dive tour to discover the marine life - it's a great way to see the tropical fish and coral reefs. See the splendour of the dolphins, turtles, and sea eagles by taking a guided sea kayak tour exploring the beautiful bays. Jet ski or water ski around the island or hire a yacht and sail the secluded waters.
You can go horse riding on the beach at Horseshoe Bay or for the ultimate views try skydiving over the island. And when the sun goes down you can still enjoy the beaches. Every month there's a Full Moon beach party.
Take in the natural wonder of the island and tour around by bus or taxi. For the more adventurous cruise the island in a Mini Moke or a Harley Davidson and feel the fresh air on your face. You can even hire trail bikes, scooters or bicycles. Get off the beaten track with a 4WD drive tour or there's the 25 kilometres of walking trails through the National Park. Take the Fort Walk to experience the observation points built to protect Townsville during WWII. You can explore the island alone or take one of the many tours. Enjoy an indigenous bush tucker experience or ride in style around the island in a stretch jeep.
Here, you'll abandon your compass and slip into island time. You can lose yourself for a few days, or weeks and find yourself enjoying life in the tropics on Magnetic Island.
