Hinchinbrook Island

Hinchinbrook Island

We are the most flexible, convenient, and cost effective ferry option.  Our craft is purpose-built for local conditions.

  • Two-way transfer to/from Hinchinbrook Island.
  • Lucinda mainland pickups/dropoffs
  • Cardwell mainland pickups/(limited dropoffs)
  • Transfers to other islands (Permits usually required)
  • Day trips (Flexible!  Your choice, depending on weather and tides: leave you at one place to enjoy the island solitude, or show you the marine sights, or both)

NOTE:   We can transfer you to/from Ramsay Bay (Northern end) and George’s Point (South End of Thorsborne Trail).  You may prefer to use us for your transfers because whether you walk north-south or south-north, you can leave your vehicle in Lucinda where there is safe parking, and we manage both water-borne parts of your journey.  (We are the first ferry service to implement this more scenic, convenient, and cost-effective transfer for Thorsborne trail walkers).
