Hill Inlet lookouts

Take the Tongue Point walk for a series of Hill Inlet outlooks above Whitsunday Island's shifting turquoise waters.

From Tongue Point, take the easy-to-moderate uphill walk to the Hill Inlet lookout platforms for views across the turquoise waters and inlet.

Hill Inlet is culturally significant to the Ngaro people. The return walk is 1.4km and usually takes about 40 minutes; if one platform is busy, continue to the next for another view.

Check Queensland Parks visitor information for Hill Inlet lookouts (opens in a new tab).
