Ride to Paradise Whitsundays Overnight Cruise 2D/2N

Ride to Paradise Itinerary

Day One

Be greeted by your friendly crew at Coral Sea Marina in time for a 2pm departure. Hop aboard your Wildcat vessel and cruise at high speed over to beautiful Paradise Cove Resort. After you have regained your breath from the exhilarating ride and stunning view, settle into the Resort with a cheese platter and cakes.

Your friendly hosts will introduce you to your home for the next few days and give you a breakdown of the plan. The afternoon is yours to explore and enjoy the water sports, pool, beaches, or other activities available. After dinner has been enjoyed, your hosts will light a fire ready for marshmallows and you can star gaze before heading back to your comfortable room.

Day Two

Wake up to a delicious continental breakfast and prepare for a fun-filled Whitsunday adventure! Your Wildcat hosts will take you to the world-famous Whitsunday Island to witness the incredible Hill Inlet Lookout, enjoy a short bushwalk, and explore iconic Whitehaven Beach. Make sure you take a dip in the ocean and look out for seasonal baby stingrays and reef sharks.

After a few hours enjoying the pure white silica sand, indulge in a delicious lunch on board before heading off to your first snorkelling location Peter Bay to witness stunning coral gardens. Your second snorkelling location is only a short sail away and features the colourful marine life of the Great Barrier Reef including (if you’re lucky!) “George” the Maori Wrasse. Relax as your crew speed you back to Paradise for an afternoon of socialising, activities, and indulging at your own discretion. Dinner and afternoon tea are included.

Day Three

Make sure you’re in early for the delicious breakfast back in Main House. The morning will be filled with self-directed activities but don’t miss the chance to kayak the Coral Sea and witness beautiful sea turtles. If a more relaxing morning is on your mind, claim a hammock and watch the waves lap at the pristine beach.

Enjoy a delicious morning tea before hopping aboard the Wildcat for the final time. Your crew will sail you home to Airlie Beach as you reflect on your relaxing adventure.

Please note: All overnight tours are subject to tidal conditions, weather, and the professional judgement of your captain.
