The Whitsunday region of Australia's Queensland coast houses the largest charter boat fleet in the southern hemisphere. Holidaymakers and boating enthusiasts have endless options for exploring the 74 islands offshore - either self-skippered or with a professional crew. Choices range from budget sailing trips to luxury cruises on catamarans, tall ships, ex-racing yachts, classic cruisers, or modern monohulls. Trips may be as short as one day or longer than a week.

Whitsunday Bareboat Sailing

For the definitive self-skippered sailing adventure look no further than a Whitsunday bareboat. The term bareboat refers not to the level of dress worn aboard, but to the lack of any formal crew. Advantages of bareboating holidays lie in the freedom and flexibility they offer. The boat charterer sets the schedule and pace.

Bareboating is well established in the Whitsundays and the standard of service is consequently high. Today's bareboat fleet includes yachts, flybridge cruisers and sailing or power catamarans. There are vessels to suit as few as two or as many as twelve guests. Boats are equipped with comfort, safety and enjoyment in mind.
