Take a ride on the wild side and explore the west coast of Magnetic Island - it's the side of "Maggie" that few people see!
Discover abundant wildlife and the secrets and mysteries of this World Heritage Island. From unbelievable sunsets across the Coral Sea to mainland Australia to rare and critical ecosystems, and from Indigenous history to mining for gold.
This is the undeveloped wild coast that our Traditional Owners, the Wulgarukaba treasured. It provided ample food and shelter and reflects their ancient history.
Take a trip through the lowland forests, spectacular creeks and amazing mangroves. A highlight is the renowned West Point sunset, on a secluded beach.
MI Ride offers two 4WD guided bus tours along the West Point track:
A 2.5-hour West Point Sunset Safari with a complimentary champagne, beer or wine and a shared seasonal food platter included.
A 3-hour West Coast Eco Adventure, including fauna, flora, history and geology with morning tea included.
They take immense pride in showcasing this incredible west coast to visitors with their locally owned, family-run business, and they look forward to meeting you.
