Sailing in the Whitsundays 

Whitsundays sailing adventures

Few locations are as ideal for sailing as the Whitsundays, the tropical gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. Deserted inlets and welcoming harbours are never far away in this island paradise, where calm waters make for smooth sailing on the inner reef.

The choice of Whitsundays sailing vessels is huge, with multi-sailed schooners and tall ships, racing maxi yachts and catamarans. Sailing is easy in the Whitsundays, so learn the ropes if you are a novice or gain your skippering qualifications in the world’s best sailing waters. Join a day cruise, sip champagne on a romantic sunset sail, hoist the mainsail on a self-skippered bareboat, or organise a fully crewed private charter for a leisurely week-long meander from island to island.
