A Glimpse at your Three Bays in Three Ways Adventure

What to Expect

Your Three Bays in Three Ways adventure begins at the Magnetic Island Marina in Nelly Bay, where your personal skipper will welcome you aboard our fast 5.2m RIB boat — designed to take you off the beaten track and explore the island’s hidden gems in comfort and style.

After a quick safety briefing and a relaxed chat about how you'd like to spend your time, we’ll cruise along the island’s stunning eastern coastline to visit three secluded bays. With no set itinerary, the experience is tailored just for you — whether that means snorkelling vibrant coral reefs, swimming in crystal-clear waters, or simply relaxing on a quiet beach all to yourselves.

What You Can Do at Each Bay

·        Swim in calm, clear waters

·        Snorkel among colourful coral and marine life

·        Relax on the sand, often with no one else around

·        Enjoy a gourmet picnic with spectacular island views

A Gourmet Picnic, Island-Style

At one of the bays, you’ll enjoy a generous picnic lunch prepared with fresh, local ingredients — including prawns, yummy cheeses, cured meats, tropical fruits, and warm baguette. It’s all served beachside, barefoot, and paired with your favourite cold drink.
