Superyachts In The Whitsundays

Updated Thu 27 Jun 2024

Picture 74 tropical islands surrounded by pristine white sandy beaches and azure waters right on the doorstep of the Great Barrier Reef... this is known as the Whitsundays. An escape to the Whitsundays offers a world-class experience like no other. While many international destinations have become overcrowded and over-developed, the Whitsundays remain largely untouched and evoke a true sense of paradise in luxury holiday-makers as they cruise through the jewel-coloured Coral Sea.

With over 21 pristine anchorages suitable for vessels over 35 metres, the Whitsunday Islands are fast becoming a must-visit destination for superyachts worldwide. The abundance of luxury resorts and facilities catering to high-end travellers makes the Whitsunday Islands an aquatic paradise for superyachts.

Coral Sea Marina

The state-of-the-art Coral Sea Marina Resort in Airlie Beach is an award-winning superyacht haven. The deluxe marina features 5-star facilities such as chic cafes, classy restaurants, parking and marine services plus over 500 berths for 12-70 metre long vessels. Owner Paul Darrouzet has invested millions in the facelift of the marina to create the perfect home port for luxury holiday-makers from across the globe. Winning 'Australian Marina of the Year' four years in a row (2017 to 2020) and 'World's Best Superyacht Marina' in 2022, it's no wonder that more and more people are choosing to berth their superyachts in the renowned marina. 

Coral Sea goes the extra nautical mile for all superyacht guests, with a dedicated Superyacht Concierge service that provides the kind of world-class experience only an accredited Platinum Gold Anchor marina can offer. Darraouzet explained that his dream was to create the "Monaco of the South Pacific” when he purchased the run-down marina in 2013. He has successfully fulfilled his vision!

Hamilton Island Superyacht Berthing

Hamilton Island Marina is another popular superyacht destination with modern facilities and a full list of exclusive services for the high-end market. There are 301 marina berths available for vessels up to 60m and Hamilton Island is even serviced by a domestic airport just minutes from the marina.

Hamilton Island itself is a world-class destination featuring many resorts, including the luxury 6-star Qualia Resort, while maintaining a charming island village feel. Complimentary shuttle buses transport guests around the island or you can choose to hire your own golf buggy to explore on your own. The One Tree Hill Lookout offers spectacular views of the Whitsundays and the Coral Sea. Any trip to the Whitsunday Islands would be incomplete without a visit to the iconic Whitehaven Beach, only a 25-minute cruise from the marina. This stunning beach with its pure white silica sand and swirling turquoise water is a must-see destination that is ranked as one of the best beaches in the world.
