Magnetic Island Holiday Units

Being in a naturally beautiful place with such good weather, it is not surprising to find an abundance of outdoor activities, especially on the water. These range from the exhilarating, like the Jetski Tour around the island, to the absolutely relaxing, sailing in a quiet bay, stretched out, perfectly content.
There is a choice of sailing and cruising trips with each one different, but all offering a relaxing day out on the water, with swimming, snorkelling over coral reefs or just lazing in the sun, you can even rent your own yacht.
Another great way to see the marine life is taking a guided Sea Kayak tour. The qualified instructor will show you the easy technique and from the quiet of your kayak, exploring beautiful bays, you will have the chance to see dolphins, turtles, coral reef fish, sea eagles and whales.
There are sailing catamarans for hire, also sailboards, surfskis, canoes & aquabikes, or how about waterskiing, skydiving on the beach. Learn to Scuba dive or experience a resort dive. Diving & snorkelling gear is also available for hire.
If you fancy a spot of fishing, you can take a guided fishing tour. Other ways to take a tour of the island are by bus, taxi or Harley Davidson, or hire a colourful Moke, trail bike, scooter or bicycle & explore at your leisure. There are also fun four-wheel drive tours.
There is horse & pony riding, tennis & lawn bowls. For all golfing enthusiasts a round at the Country Club in Picnic Bay is a must, (it is said to be where Greg Norman first played golf). You’ll be made very welcome at all the island’s clubs.
More than half of the Island's 5,184 hectares is National Park, with Mt.Cook in the centre rising to 497 metres. Huge granite boulders are softened by tall Hoop pines, eucalypt forest & small patches of rainforest. Where the rocky headlands meet the sea many secluded beaches have been formed, some may only be reached on foot or by boat. There are 24 kms. of walking track through the park with many spectacular lookouts. The National Park is a haven for wildlife, like rock wallabies, possums, koalas and a wide variety of bird-life.
