Discover the best of the Whitsunday Islands on this 2-night sail from Airlie Beach. Enjoy captivating snorkel excursions each day, visit UNESCO World Heritage-listed islands, and explore the underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef.

Visit locations such as Whitehaven Beach, Hook Island, Hayman Island, Border Island, and Whitsunday Island. Stop to snorkel at Luncheon Bay, Caves Cove, and Blue Pearl Bay. Sleep on a spacious maxi yacht on the first night and camp on one of the islands surrounding the Whitsundays on the second night. Help assist the crew by hoisting the mainsail and dropping anchor at each exciting destination. Alternatively, sit back and relax on the spacious deck and enjoy the view of the pristine Whitsunday Islands. Every evening, roll up your sleeves and help the crew prepare mouth-watering specialties like beef stew, spaghetti bolognese, fresh bread, green salad, pasta salads, and much more. Or, position yourself at the ship’s prow where you can watch the sky change from yellow to magenta as the sun sets.

We had such a fab time on Spank Me with Alex, Kate and Savannah. They got us straight out to snorkel, made us feel safe while swimming and made delicious food! They gave us lots of facts about the islands as well which was great. Definitely an experience we won’t forget! Swimming with turtles, seeing amazing fish in the water and dolphins and sharks from the boat.

We could not recommend this tour more! What a unique way to experience one of the most beautiful places in the world. We enjoyed our 2 nights with Oz sail so much and got to see some incredible beaches and snorkelling spots. Along with whale, turtle and dolphin spotting and some of the most amazing star gazing. The crew, Alex, Kerri’s and Kate were fantastic making sure we were the first people on Whitehaven beach and cooking up tasty meals. Although living conditions are a bit cramped it was well worth embracing for 2 nights and the trip we experienced. We couldn’t thank you guys more for such an amazing trip! Anna and Aslan

Wonderful way of seeing the islands and snorkelling, seeing the reef, the fish, turtles, and Whitehaven Beach at sunrise was unforgettable. Crew was very professional and I felt safe the whole trip, gave us a thorough safety briefing so we knew the kinds of things that could potentially go wrong and how we can avoid them, and what to do in each circumstance. We ended up doing two nights on the boat due to recent weather making the tents for the beach stay too wet to use, but it was a wonderful two nights (the rocking of the boat took some getting used to if you've never slept on a boat before!). If you're looking for an adventure and want to do snorkelling and sailing plus Whitehaven, this is the trip to do.
