Full description

Embark on an adventure and set sail on a 2-hour sunset sail across the bay. Be welcomed on board with a glass of bubbles. Relax on the green cushioned seats on deck. Help pull up a sail, or two if you feel like it or just chill on deck and take in the tropical sunset. Enjoy some snacks on the platter consisting of crusty bread, cheeses, fruit, and dips. This experience is perfect for a romantic evening and a journey to remember. Experience the boat Providence V that was in a Hollywood movie called Survive the Savage Seas and is one of the most picturesque sailing boats in the Whitsundays. The boat is built from North Queensland timber and is a replica of the old Grand Banks fishing boats, a Bluenose or Gloucester schooner.

It was an experience of a lifetime! When I booked online, I had no idea I would be sailing on such a historic vessel... could be promoted more. The captain was informative and entertaining and put us all at ease. Watching the young female crew handling the vessel was so impressive, and the views were out of this world! I appreciated the bubbly and nibbles, which added a sparkle to the night... and I will bring a hat or scarf next time, as we oldies feel the cold Brilliant, beautiful... and unforgettable. Thank you all so much

What a great way to wind up our stay at Airlie Beach. Very embarrassingly I couldn't read my map properly and we got lost at the wharf and delayed the adventure but the boys were very understanding and helped us out, waiting until we hobbled our way to the correct place, going above and beyond the cause to give us a sailing experience to remember always.

We set sail out into the harbour off Airlie Beach with a glass of champagne in hand. Everyone was friendly and the view was spectacular. The crew catered for my gluten free diet. After watching the sunset we drifted back into Coral Seas marina. Airlie Beach was beautifully lit up.
