Dining & Beverages

Set Menu Dinner

Dining on board is a communal and relaxed affair, featuring a set-menu approach that highlights fresh, local ingredients. Guests can enjoy their meals in the outdoor dining area, taking in the stunning island views while savoring well-prepared dishes. The crew is attentive to special dietary requirements, ensuring that every guest is well-fed and satisfied throughout the journey.

Shore excursions & land activities

The Entice focuses on land-based exploration and water-based leisure rather than scuba activities. Guests can enjoy guided walks and hikes to iconic locations like Hill Inlet, where the shifting sands create a mesmerizing landscape. These excursions are designed to be accessible and engaging, allowing travelers to immerse themselves in the unique flora and fauna of the Whitsunday Islands. Water activities are centered on snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding, providing a gentle way to explore the fringing coral reefs and clear lagoons. The crew provides guidance on the best spots to observe marine life, ensuring that all activities are conducted with respect for the delicate reef ecosystem. Whether hiking to a scenic lookout or paddling through a quiet cove, the pace is relaxed and tailored to the interests of the guests.

Booking & Travel FAQ

How does the booking process work?

Select a cabin and departure on Entice, and we send a real-time inquiry to the operator. After availability is confirmed, you receive a booking confirmation by email and secure your spot with a deposit.

When do I need to pay?

A deposit (usually 25-35%) is due upon confirmation. The remaining balance is typically due 4-8 weeks before departure, depending on the operator.

What documents will I receive?

After your final payment, you'll receive a travel voucher with meeting point, embarkation time, airport transfer details, packing tips, and your full itinerary.

How do I get to the cruise ship?

Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary. Some operators arrange airport pickup, group flights or transfers; check your booking confirmation and travel voucher for what is included. We recommend arriving in the gateway city at least one day before departure, unless your operator provides different instructions.

What clothing and footwear should I bring?

Bring sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes with good grip for shore visits, and comfortable clothing suited to your destination's weather. Pack breathable layers, a sun hat and sun protection for warm regions; for colder or wetter conditions, add warm layers and a waterproof, windproof jacket. Check the operator's packing list for landing footwear, any supplied equipment and specific requirements.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

Cancellation terms vary by operator and are in your confirmation. Generally, the earlier you cancel the higher the refund. Changes depend on availability, contact us as soon as possible.
