Hamilton Island Daily Activity GuideBeach & Watersports on Hamilton Island

With the Whitsundays just outside your front door, having fun and games in and on the water is what Hamilton Island is all about. Snorkel the coral of the Great Barrier Reef, go diving with tropical fish, play beach games by the sea on a white sand playing field, fly across the water on a jet ski or slow down the pace and see nature up close on a sea kayak.

Imagine snorkelling through the magical underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef, paddling past uninhabited islands in a sea kayak, or casting off for marlin on a game-fishing charter. From adrenaline-charged jet-skiing to fun on the sand with beach volleyball, there are Hamilton Island water sports to tempt every water baby to dive in for more.
