Sample Itinerary
Snorkelling
Over two amazing days and nights, your lively crew will take you to several different snorkel sites where you will have the opportunity to explore the inner fringing reefs of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, to get up close and personal with all of the colourful marine life. We supply high quality snorkel gear and wetsuits for all passengers to use free of charge. You'll get the chance to see the beautiful marine life up close, with the chance to play with Nemo, giant Maori Wrasse and even playful sea turtles.
Scuba diving
Powerplay offers passengers the chance to experience the underwater world through an exciting rendezvous scuba dive. As a guest on board, you have the option to do an introductory or certified dive for $79 per dive, but you must book diving in advance. Please let us know at time of booking so we can arrange it for you. Price includes all gear hire and dive instructor. Introductory divers are subject to age, conditions and medical questions and certified divers need to bring dive card please.
Heated Spa
Powerplay's heated spa is the perfect place for warming up, relaxing, or hanging out with your friends! Enjoy an evening beverage in the heat of the spa or just lounge while stargazing at night! If you're looking for an equally relaxing but dry alternative, opt to relax in the bow trampoline nets.
Blue Lights
When the day comes to an end, it's time to turn on the underwater blue lights for some night time entertainment. Embedded in the aft hulls, Powerplay features two blue lights that attract a variety of marine activity such as Giant Trevallies, small bait fish, squid and even dolphins!
Photography
Our enthusiastic crew members, the 'Powerplay Paparazzi', would like to help you capture your Whitsunday experience to share with all your mates back home. Instead of putting your camera at risk of water or sand damage, sit back and relax and let our crew take your photos for you. Both evenings you will have the opportunity to see the photos in a slideshow put on by your team of crew. All photos are placed onto a jump drive, which you can purchase at the end of the trip for $20.
