Whitsunday Sailing Activities For The Whole Family

Explore stunning beaches – With 74 continental islands and hidden beaches to explore, a family Whitsundays tour is ideal for beach lovers and family fun in the sun. The iconic Whitehaven Beach is a must-visit destination, but there are also plenty of other sandy hideaways to be found. 

→ Water activities – Enjoy thrilling water activities like kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding while you’re out on the water, or bring your own fishing gear and teach the kids how to fish!

→ Snorkelling – Dive into the sparkling clear water of the Whitsunday Islands and discover the vibrant marine life of the Great Barrier Reef. Our tour can guide you to the ideal spots for snorkelling and provide you with the right gear for Mum, Dad, and the little ones. 

→ Bushwalking – Trek your way through the many scenic bush walks on the Whitsunday Islands. Bushwalking is a great way to gather the family together — whether it’s a short or challenging walk!

Your Tour Options

Overnight Sailing Trip

An overnight boat trip allows you and your family to maximise your time on the water and enjoy the unique experience of sleeping on a boat. All food and drinks (and entertainment!) are provided, so you can worry less about preparing for the trip and spend more time simply being in the moment with your family. Most vessels will require young children to stay in a private cabin with their parents unless they meet the minimum age to stay in a cabin of their own. 

 

Day Boat Trip

A Whitsundays sailing day tour is a popular choice for families — it offers a full day packed with exciting adventures and activities that end in the evening at Airlie Beach’s town centre. Day tours can be booked across multiple days for more time to explore the Whitsundays Islands. 

Private Charter

A private charter gives you and your family the freedom to explore the Whitsunday Islands at your own leisure — go where you want to with a boat and crew that exclusively cater to your family. 

At Whitsunday Sailing Adventures, we offer a variety of vessels that can accommodate both small and large families with a combination of double and single beds. Our more premium vessels feature private cabins with an ensuite bathroom.
