Wings
Get ready for a unique Wings Adventure where an amazing array of spectacular destinations is opened up through sheer boat speed. Experience some awesome sailing as you head to places like Butterfly Bay, Caves Cove, Mantaray Bay and Bali Hai...!
Wings departs every Mon, Weds and Sat. Your skipper is on a mission to show you the best of the Whitsundays and with over 74 islands out there, there's literally hundreds of serene anchorages, sparkling dive sites and mind boggling beaches to explore. Getting there is half the fun! Wings is a fast, roomy sailing catamaran that flys along at a stable level. This means you can make the most of her huge deckspace while underway, whether strolling forward to lounge on the tramps and take in the 360 degree views or simply to find that perfect sunbaking possie on deck as you fly towards each new island paradise. When you do drop anchor,there's endless opportunities for adventuring ashore. Indulge in a rainforest walk or a spot of beachcombing ... or slip on some gear for a snorkel or dive.
Hundreds of people have experienced their first dive aboard Wings - and ended up addicted to underworld sightseeing as a result! While Intro divers are blown away by the Whitsundays, our highly experienced dive guests also vote the Whitsundays as one of the best dive spots on the planet. So along with fast, stable sailing, awesome underwater forays and breathtaking island exploration.
And it does not stop there, delicious meals for starters, along with a huge home theatre system, underwater digital photography, on board dive instructors and mega crew. These guys make it their job to ensure total comfort and non stop fun are your daily priorities - not a bad agenda!
PowerPlay
Voyaging between each destination in the beautiful Whitsundays is an experience in itself, as the ultra-modern, turbo powered catamaran carves it's way effortlessly through the magnificent Whitsunday Island chain. Snorkelling is a constant option and on board scuba diving is available for the beginner and experienced diver alike. After the days activities, relax in the on-deck heated spa, sipping on a cocktail. What more could you ask for ? Sister to Wings, this boat and its itinerary are very similar with the only main difference between the two being that it also offers private doublesas well as private queens, as opposed to Wings private queens and PowerPlay is 2-3ft smaller. It sells itself as a motor boat. Powerplay departs every Tues, Thurs Sat.
Enjoy freshly prepared meals while relaxing and socialising in the spacious saloon area. Lounge on the forward trampolines and watch the stars or take in a latest release DVD on our flat screen entertainment centre. The Power Play experience sets a new standard in luxury charter in the Whitsundays, where distance is no object, choices are endless and holiday memories amazing!
