If your pickup address is not on our drop down list, please CALL US as we will need to give you a time for that pickup location. NOTE we only pickup from Airlie Beach or nearby surrounds so please check. If you are making your own way, PLEASE MEET US AT CORAL SEA MARINA NORTH. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT AT CORAL MARINA SEA MARINA SOUTH WHICH IS FIVE MINUTES WALK FROM US. Also you will need to park there as it offers longterm parking. Coral Sea Marina North does not offer longterm parking. If you are staying at Coral Sea Marina Resort we are only a five minute walk down the boardwalk.

We reserve the right to change the route or destination if necessary e.g. weather conditions
Our minimum numbers are fifteen people in order to sail. You will be offered an opportunity to transfer to another day or can ask for a full refund.
If you lose or damage snorkelling gear or stinger suits you will be charged for the replacement of lost goods via EFTPOS on the boat.
The Master's directions are to be always obeyed.
We have a WAIVER that must be signed by all guests (including children via parent/guardian). This will be sent to you at the time your booking is confirmed.
All departures and itineraries are subject to weather and maybe changed or cancelled at the discretion of the Master.
Please note we operate sailing vessels. We do endeavour to use our sails but that depends upon winds and weather conditions. Please also note that it takes 3 hours to reach Whitehaven Beach which is some distance from Airlie Beach. The journey is part of the day. Also, as we have sailing vessels, please also note you may get wet from waves, depending on the conditions. We are inside the Great Barrier Reef which means we are more sheltered than in the open ocean but if you have not experienced a sailing vessel, it is quite different for e.g. from a ferry. If you have any questions at all about this, please contact us.
Prior to boarding should you be suffering from COVID symptoms (or are in close contact with someone who is) please inform us immediately.
The activity went well. Visiting the Withsundays is a must if you are in the area and if you are not, it is worth to come. Crew was also super nice, funny and explaining everything we were asking about. Can’t say anything about lunch, cause I pay for a BYO option - but take into account that they don’t give you morning tea if you are a BYO (although it says it’s included wether you choose to bring your own lunch). Anyway, the reason I’m giving 3 stars it is because it is definitely not a sailing experience. We used the motor the entire journey. The winter was in good conditions to use the sails, but I guess they didn’t want to plan the journey or waste time, i don’t know. I booked it because I wanted to go sailing to the Whitsundays. Not the case. It is a sailing boat, it is not a sailing experience. Would not recommend, would catch a fast boat instead, half the time, same noice, still Whitsundays.
