Solar Whisper
Only zero-emission boat on the Daintree River
We operate quiet, zero-emission solar electric boats along the Daintree allowing guests to observe wildlife without disturbing the environment or creating exhaust fumes. One hour tours operate throughout the day from the Daintree Ferry. Specialized, small group (max. 10 guests) two-hour photography or birding cruises, led by David White, are available by prior arrangement. The boats can navigate narrow creeks as well as the main river, offering unique access to hidden wildlife habitats.
Wildlife and Experience
Quietly glide up to crocodiles & other wildlife without scaring them or hurting their habitat.
Guests can expect to see saltwater crocodiles, birds, snakes, frogs, crabs, and fish, with a high success rate for spotting. The boats are equipped with a Croc Cam, an onboard screen that magnifies camouflaged wildlife for better viewing. Tours are guided by experienced local interpreters who provide insights into crocodile behavior, mangrove ecosystems, and rainforest.
On some occasions, we don’t see a crocodile. It is afterall, a natural habitat free of enclosures, but we do offer free return cruises when this occurs.
