Hinchinbrook Island is located off shore from Cardwell, just over an hour south of Mission Beach. If you only have a day to check out the island then I recommend the day cruise on Hinchinbrook Explorer, it is one of my favourite adventures. You cruise from Cardwell to Hinchinbrook Island to collect any guests staying at the Wilderness Lodge, then proceed to Ramsay Bay. A quick trek across the sand dunes takes you to a lovely stretch of beach where you can go for a swim or a walk. Back on the boat and off to Macushla, this is the best part of the day for me, you can get a picnic lunch and walk the 5kms or so back to the Wilderness Lodge. I did this walk with an 8 year old friend and she loved it, I think the fact that I told her she could go for a swim in the Lodge pool before getting back on the boat was all the incentive she needed....and me for that matter. A fabulous day that I strongly recommend and only a short drive from Mission Beach.
