Whitsundays Backpacker Tours
Planning to travel to the Whitsunday Islands as part of your backpacking trip? True Blue’s Whitsundays youth tours are the perfect way to experience the best the Whitsundays has to offer — from sailing across crystal clear waters to underwater explorations of the Great Barrier Reef.
Our Whitsunday backpacker tours are ideal for young travellers, backpackers, and anyone seeking an adventure over two days and two nights of fun and socialising. We’ll take you to all of the big names - Whitehaven Beach, Hill Inlet Lookout - plus a few hidden gems for snorkeling and diving.
We have two Whitsundays backpacker tours on the Atlantic Clipper and the New Horizon, each with a unique itinerary, comfortable accommodations, a freshly prepared menu of meals, and equipment for a range of water activities.
Don’t wait too long to book with us — spots on tours run out quickly, especially during peak season! Get in touch with our team today to secure a spot for your Whitsundays backpacker tour with True Blue Sailing.
