Commonwealth Games holiday

Are you planning to visit Brisbane and the Gold Coast for the Commonwealth Games in 2018? Queensland offers some of Australia’s most beautiful landscapes and the Whitsunday Islands are one of the most famous destinations to visit. If you are travelling all this way, it’s very worthwhile to spend a little longer and see a little more of our beautiful country.

Just a short flight north of Brisbane, the Whitsundays offer perfect sailing and boating waters. There are 74 islands to explore, countless bays and inlets, with coral reefs, plenty of marine life, and some of the most beautiful sunsets you’ve ever seen.

Hire a bareboat yacht, catamaran or power boat, and you can explore these beautiful islands at your own pace. We’ll guide you with a comprehensive boat and area briefing before you set off on your own itinerary. You don’t need a licence or sailing qualification, just enough experience to handle the boat safely.

If you would like to talk to an expert, give the team at Whitsunday Escape a call and have a chat about what you want, and we’ll help you pick the best boat to suit your needs.
