ACTIVITY BROCHURE
IN TRO D U C T I O N
Enter into a world of destination-inspired activity during your stay on Hayman Island.
Each experience - both on island and off - delivers a meaningful connection to
Australia’s most picturesque surrounds; where diving the Great Barrier Reef,
venturing out on tropical hikes and sailing the Coral Sea are but the beginning.
Advanced underwater scooters, diving tours and guided snorkelling tours showcase
the kaleidoscopic beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, while helicopter and seaplanes
offer breathtaking views of the Heart Reef from above. Allow magnificent sailing
regattas to present the best on-water experiences, while personalised charters explore
the turquoise swirls of Hill Inlet and the world-famous Whitehaven Beach.
While on island, discover an innate sense of connection with your surrounds;
whether it be catching the sunrise during yoga on the sparkling beach, discovering
rare wildlife with guided tours, snorkelling at Blue Pearl Bay or simply reclining in
the iconic Hayman Pool.
