Children's Snorkelling:
We provide snorkeling equipment available for all ages, but we do not provide fins to protect the reef. For toddlers, we recommend that parents bring their own life vests for a better fit in the water. Alternatively, life vests can be hired from Aqua Dive the day before your sail.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do we organise our wedding charter?
Contact our team of private charter experts! Every private charter is flexible and subject to availability, so just get in touch with our friendly team and we can chat with you about your options.
How far in advance should we book?
Private charters are all subject to availability, so generally you want to book as far in advance as you can! The sooner you book, the better chance you have of securing your chosen dates.

The private charter is customisable, so you can choose the best times that suit your schedule. The full day charter generally departs at 7:30am and returns at 4:30pm, but it's up to you.

The half day wedding charter is 5 hours, and the full day wedding charter is 8 hours. Providence has plenty of other charter options available as well, so enquire for more info.

You can if you want to! The Whitsundays are full of amazing beaches and snorkel spots. If it fits in your itinerary and you want to swim or snorkel, that can definitely be arranged. But again, the charter is flexible, so you don't have to get in the water if you prefer a ceremony or event that is onboard the ship only.
Can we visit Whitehaven Beach?
You can visit Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Lookout on the full day charter! The half day charter will likely not have enough time to visit Whitehaven.
