Find your Perfect Next Whitsunday Holiday

Is it time you came back to the Whitsundays?

Queensland, where it’s beautiful one day, and perfect the next.

The Whitsundays, in the middle of the Queensland Coast, boasts the best of Queensland’s natural assets. With impressive bucket-list worth beaches like Whitehaven Beach, once in a lifetime scenic flight opportunities like Heart Reef, snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, seeing turtles and whales up close… The Whitsundays has so much to offer visitors looking for their next perfect Queensland holiday.

Do it your way

When you hire a bareboat to explore the Whitsunday Islands, you can choose your own itinerary, and tailor your holiday to be exactly what you want it to be.

If you want to dive and snorkel, our knowledgeable team will point you in the direction of rental equipment, and the best locations to explore underwater.

If you want to learn to sail, our reservations team can help you get started before you even arrive, to set you up for the holiday of a lifetime. On arrival, you can organise some hands-on lessons with our experienced, patient, briefers who will show you how to safely handle the boat you’ve booked for your holiday.

If you want to relax and soak up some sunshine, find deserted beaches with no footprints on them, we can let you in on the local secrets to find your perfect secret spot.

Where to go

The Whitsundays are made up of 74 island wonders, in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef. Every island has numerous bays, inlets and anchorages that you can visit. It would take years of exploration to see them all!

We’ve got a fun interactive map you explore, that highlights just a small handful of our favourite spots.

There are secluded bays where you’ll have the whole place to yourself, and swim-up pool bars on island resorts where you can enjoy a cocktail and make new friends. And you can easily do both in one day, it’s not a matter of choosing one over the other. It’ll keep the whole crew happy. Sounds pretty much perfect, doesn’t it?

All we can say is, make sure you take your phone, your ‘good’ camera, underwater camera, drone, selfie stick… as there are hundreds of photogenic locations you’ll want to remember years after your perfect Whitsunday bareboating holiday.
