1 day Sailing Adventure aboard the maxi Ragamuffin
To you choice of destination, either Whitehaven Beach or Blue Pearl Bay.

Option 1. Whitehaven Beach
Sixteen nautical miles from the mainland is a place which is renowned as one of the world’s most famous beaches. The water at Whitehaven is usually crystal clear, so it’s a great spot to enjoy a swim in the warm tropical waters of The Whitsundays.Beach cricket, volleyball, frisbee and other activities are available for those that feel the need to expend some energy whilst on the beach.

Your picnic is an informal affair and yet the menu is exotic. We have a selection of fresh tortilla rolls with satay chicken or vegetarian salad, rare roast beef and salad rolls and a fresh Queensland tropical fruit platter. A gourmet afternoon platter is served on our return sail to the mainland. The return sail past some very interesting and dramatic scenery tops off a day trip that is a must for every visitor to the Whitsundays!

Option 2. Blue Pearl Bay on Hayman Island
A two-hour sail from the mainland, Blue Pearl Bay on Hayman Island boasts some spectacular fringing reef. See beautiful fringing reef corals and thousands of tropical fish in waist deep water just metres from the beach.

For the more adventurous, a short paddle brings you to spectacular coral bommies and the largest Blue Pearl Bay residents like Maori Wrasse and Coral Trout. Snorkelling is supervised and for the new or inexperienced, instruction is available on board. All snorkelling gear is supplied free of charge.

Diving (additional cost) – Even if you haven’t dived before, try your first dive with our qualified dive instructors, subject to a diving medical questionnaire on board. Or for Certified Divers, our instructors will show you the best sites in The Whitsundays. All gear is provided for all dives.
