Australasia Yacht Charter: Explore Whitsundays

Explore Australasia

From dynamic cities and breathtaking unspoilt landscapes to sweeping beaches and stunning coastlines brimming with natural wonders, Australasia offers extraordinary experiences. Sail into Sydney for iconic views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Aquatic adventures await you at the Great Barrier Reef, or play a round of golf before sampling superlative seafood on one of the Whitsunday Islands. In New Zealand, adventure-seekers can climb mountains, cross fjords, go white-water rafting, join a horseback safari or hike on one of many world-renowned trails.

Insider's guide

From Hamilton Island up to Princess Charlotte Bay, Queensland’s coast is about relaxation and adventure. Whether island-hopping in the Whitsundays, or exploring the Great Barrier Reef, a charter opens up this exotic, off-the-beaten-track destination.

Insider's guide

Heavenly dining

Hamilton Island

Gaze over the Whitsundays as you savour oysters and Champagne, kangaroo fillet and blood-peach soufflé on the Bommie Restaurant’s terrace in the ultra-chic Hamilton Island Yacht Club.

Dazzling sands

Whitehaven Beach

There are no superlatives left to describe Whitehaven Beach on the far side of Whitsunday Island. At low tide it reveals the purest white sand you’ll ever see.

Wild pampering

Orpheus Island Lodge

At the heart of the Great Barrier Reef, the Orpheus Island Lodge welcomes only 28 guests per day. The Aboriginal-inspired two-hour Sapphire Sea Wrap at its Gwandalan Day Spa will rejuvenate you.

Fine dining

Cairns

North of Cairns, Nu Nu’s outdoor banquette tables have views through the palm trees to the island-spotted sea. The sharing platter of fried baby barramundi with surf clams and pickled squid is a must.

Outer limits

Lizard Island

Fly by helicopter to the outer Barrier Reef, to Ribbon Reef No.10, No Name Reef and Yonge Reef. Book a visit to Lizard Island Research Station, as the reef research facility now accepts visitors.
