JOURNEY DETAILS

Day 1 - Whitsunday Islands, Private Yacht Charter, 3 nights

At Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach or Shute Harbour board your selected yacht and meet your skipper. During the course of making your reservations we will work with you to carefully select a cruiser or a yacht that suits your party.

Again we work with you to ensure your personal tastes are catered for.


Day 2 & 3 - Whitsunday Islands Live Aboard

Visit the very best beaches and secluded island anchorages in the Whitsunday's, snorkel magnificent fringing reefs alive with tropical fish and a huge array of vivid corals. Do as little or as much as you please, there are no strict itineraries. Your skipper will plan a sailing safari that may include -

  • Viewing waterfalls and Aboriginal rock paintings on Hook Island.

  • Cid Harbour on Whitsunday Island offers a truly picturesque anchorage and bush walking, be sure to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting and azure blue waters.

  • For a change of pace, go ashore at Hamilton Island, there are restaurants, pools, shops and bars as well as a huge range of resort facilities to be experienced.

  • At Cateran Bay on Border Island experience fabulous snorkelling and see the reefs teeming with colourful fish.

  • Enjoy breakfast on the deck and feed the fish in the crystal clear waters.

  • Take a leisurely cruise over to South Molle Island, climb the island’s peak to enjoy stunning views of the surrounding islands or have a game of golf or tennis.

  • Scuba diving equipment can be arranged at the the time of booking.

For those who like to be involved, there is the opportunity to learn some of the basics - set the sails, take the helm, become part of the crew or simply swing in a hammock and watch the world go by as you cruise from one magnificent island anchorage to another.
