Discover Cape Hillsborough on a seven hour guided sunrise wildlife tour from Airlie Beach, where kangaroos and wallabies gather along the shoreline as dawn breaks over the Coral Sea.

As the sky shifts from navy to gold, watch native wildlife appear on the sand in a peaceful, almost surreal moment that is perfect for photographers. Your knowledgeable local guide shares fascinating insights into the region's wildlife, ecology and volcanic landscape.
