What to expect

Booking 1 adult equals 1 private boat. Once we leave the dock we will raise the sails and sail to a destination in eastern Moreton Bay. This takes about two to three hours, depending on destination and start time, aiming to arrive around 11am. This is an immersive sailing experience. Do as little or as much as you want under the care of our RYA Yacht Master Offshore certified skippers. Wildlife you may see include dolphins, sea turtles, dugongs, ospreys and sea life. Once we arrive, we will drop anchor and lower the swimming platform. We have towels, snorkels and goggles onboard. Enjoy a swim and/or a snorkel before lunch. Lunch is BYO. The yacht has two fridges to store your drinks and food. Enjoy lunch around the shaded cockpit table (8-10 people) or dine downstairs in the saloon dining area (8 people). After lunch, go ashore in the dinghy. On-shore facilities and activities include beach shelter, beach cricket, frisbee and soccer. We will then sail home and disembark in Manly. As this is a private charter we can adapt the destination and the itinerary. This is an 8-hour charter. We also offer a 10-hour charter for Tangalooma Wrecks or Lucinda Bay both on Moreton Island.
