How to Book
Step 1
Decide Which Type of Boat to Charter
No licenses are required to charter our boats – just some basic boat handling experience or a willingness to learn.
If you’ve never sailed before or want to get around quicker, a power boat would be suggested.
If you’re a keen sailor, the monohulls should feed your yachting desires
If you want a spacious boat that gives you the best of both worlds, one of our sailing catamarans would be best for you.
Step 2
Decide When to Go
The Whitsundays offers year round tropical weather, meaning no matter when you charter you’re sure to enjoy temperatures averaging 27c and water temperatures of 25c.
- If you’re a keen sailor, June to August offers ideal cruising conditions.
- If you want warm, balmy days and nights September to March will deliver.
- if you’re wanting to get away from the crowds, May and November will make you feel like you have the place to yourself.
Step 3
Book Your Boat
Once you’ve decided on your boat, chosen dates and you’re ready to lock your charter in:
