7. No visit to the Maggie would be complete without a stop at Geoffrey Bay to see if you can find some of our extremely cute Allied Rock Wallabies. These wallabies are found only in Northern Queensland between Townsville and the Burdekin River. Geoffrey Bay is also an opportunity to get out of the bus and get up close and personal with our incredible rock formations.

8. Climbing the long steep hill towards Horseshoe Bay you will get some breathtaking views across the island. You will then head down the other side into the old farming precinct before we stop for some free time in Horseshoe Bay where a variety of food is available. During the winter when the butterflies are around we will definitely visit the Butterfly forest for a short bush walk. Its an experience not to be missed and great balm for the soul. Horseshoe Bay also offers year round swimming with a safe swimming enclosure in place during the summer months. An excellent place to cool off if you bring your swimmers. You can choose to leave the tour here and stay for dinner in one of the local cafe's or restaurants. Alternatively you can return with the bus to Nelly Bay Ferry terminal or your accommodation.

• 5Perfect Island tour

  My daughter and I had a lovely afternoon with Neil showing us around the beautiful Magnetic Island, would highly recommend if you haven't been to the Island before. Neil was knowledgeable and obviously passionate about showing off the island.

  Well worth the money to on the magnetic island tours. We learn a lot, plus we have the van for just us and my friends. We saw places and animals that we did not even seen in person, specially my 3 friends that did not see in real life. They are happy and we give maybe magnetic island tours a 5 stars

About Magnetic Island

Magnetic Island, a short ferry ride from Townsville in north Queensland, is a hilly island of granite bays, bush walks, wild koalas and rock-wallabies.

Known locally as Maggie, the island lies in Cleveland Bay a few kilometres off Townsville and takes its name from Captain James Cook, who wrote in 1770 that it seemed to affect his compass. About half of it is national park, with eucalypt woodland and granite boulders above a coast cut into bays, and the small settlements of Picnic Bay, Nelly Bay, Arcadia and Horseshoe Bay sit around the shore.
