Sailing Whitsundays 2 Day Adventure

Sailing Whitsundays Whisk yourself away to explore this delightful Queensland region.

This beautifully restored timber vessel with 2 Days and 2 Nights of Snorkelling, Diving and Paddleboarding is one of the most stunning locations on the East Coast. That is to say, there has never been a better way to explore the Whitsunday Islands!

Following on from a recent restoration, with the 97ft classic wooden Schooner featuring solid hardwood decks, timber bunks and a spectacular human-sized figurehead on her bow. As a result, when you step on board this vessel, you will feel like a true Sailor, ultimately giving you the best sailing experience you could ask for. During your trip, you can even “walk the plank” on the brand new dive board!

Since the vessel has a dive compressor on board, she is now fully equipped for Scuba Diving. For this reason, this is one of the rare diving experiences you can join on a Whitsundays 2 Day Sailing Adventure. If you haven’t dived before, there is no need to worry! The friendly crew will provide you with all the training you need!

Whitsundays 2 Day Sailing Adventure

Offering all shared accommodation, with both Double and Single Berths available.

Wake up to…

…The sunshine glinting off the ocean, and the shimmering white sands of Whitehaven Beach beckoning you from the shore.

Stretch your legs…

…and follow your guide on a gentle uphill stroll to the Hill Inlet Lookout. Only a short 40-minute return walk covering 1.3km, this moderate walk is slightly uphill, but once you reach the top – the view will blow you away! With two lookouts on offer, you will be able to make the most of the ever-changing swirling sands. Like Snowflake, no two photos are ever the same as the swirls change daily with the ebb and flow of the tide.

Soak up the sun while exploring the Whitsunday Islands

Seemingly stretching for eternity, there is 7km of this pristine silica-rich, soft white sand for you to explore. With the sand being 98% Silica, it does not retain heat. So unlike other beaches, you will never burn your feet on the hot sand here!
