Whitehaven took my breath away
The lookout over Hill Inlet is the best view in Australia. Add in snorkelling, good food and a fun crew and it was a perfect couple of days.

Whitsundays did not disappoint
From Hill Inlet lookout to the coral gardens, every stop was jaw-dropping. Skipper and hostess were absolute legends. Highly recommend.

Sailing dreams come true
Gliding between the 74 islands with the wind in the sails was unreal. Turtles on the snorkel, dolphins off the bow. Absolutely unforgettable.

Stunning islands, tight bunks
The sailing and snorkelling were world-class and the crew were legends. Bunks are snug as expected on a boat but that is part of the fun.

Loved every minute
Snorkelling straight off the back of the boat, sunbaking on the deck and Whitehaven Beach. A couple got a bit seasick but the crew were caring.

Perfect Whitsundays trip
Great crew, great food and the most beautiful islands. We snorkelled with turtles, sailed at sunset and slept under the stars. Book it!
