Itinerary
Day One Sleep on the Reef
Departing from Abell Point Marina in Airlie Beach, SV-Ton heads towards Tongue Bay, sailing through Hook Passage for a stunning close up view of the Hook and Whitsunday Islands.
As the sun sets over the ocean, the crew serve up a delicious dinner, enjoy a few drinks and the chance to get to know your fellow passengers.
Because our yacht was custom built as a catamaran for the Great Barrier Reef conditions, she is ideal for relaxing and cruising as she sits flat on the water.
She is stable and smooth and boasts a huge deck area which means you will have the choice of sleeping either inside the boat or outside should you prefer to sleep under the stars.
Day Two Sleep on the Reef
After a continental breakfast the crew will take you by tender to the Hill Inlet Lookout walking trail.
The walk meanders through the forest for about 20 minutes before finishing at the spectacular Hill Inlet Lookout!
Spend half an hour taking photos with the swirling sands of Whitehaven Beach in the background before heading down to the amazing silica sand beach.
Keep an eye out for baby sharks and stingrays hiding in the shallows!
After a couple of hours of just chillin on the beach the crew will come and collect you for a yummy lunch before sailing north to Mantaray Bay as you sit back and relax!
Arriving at Mantaray Bay the crew will give you a lesson on snorkelling before you leap into the crystal clear waters below.
In just mere moments you will be surrounded by hundreds of different colourful fish and might even get to meet the big friendly Maori Wrasse called George.
George is just like a big labrador puppy he is playful and loves to crash a good selfie with anyone he can.
Next up our crew will sail toward a new destination at Caves Cove.
Then it’s time for some chill out tunes and a beautiful sunset as you snack on afternoon tea, have a few drinks and mingle with the other guests.
After dinner this evenings events are up to you to socialise or just lay back and get lost in the beauty of the night sky and ambience.
Day Three Sail, Snorkel, Swim, Home
Wake up with the waves lapping against the shore in the cove and grab some breakfast before plunging into the waters once again to explore the amazing fringing reef and what lies beneath.
Today is also the day to ride the big 'Red Shark' (Banana Boat) so give it a go and hold on tight - you will love it - this is one ride not to be missed.
When you are done snorkelling it’s time to hoist the sails and head back across the Whitsunday passage to Airlie Beach.
The crew will serve up a snack as you glide across the water on the way home.
