Since 1985 we have been providing Whitsunday
Sailing Tours. Guests can choose between TallShip
Solway Lass or Deluxe Sail and Cruise. Whether
travelling independently, as a couple, or with
a group we have a tour option available. Our
experienced crew take the worry out of sailing
around the islands and reefs. With all Marine and
Park Permits, we will take you to the best
locations planned around the prevailing wind
and tides. There are many smooth water
stops nestled around the islands, so overnight
anchorages are pleasant for sleeping and offer
spectacular scenery!
