Hamilton Island to Southport / 600 Nm / 9 Days / CAT 2 Offshore passage
Take a stunning 600nm+ ocean passage from Hamilton Island south, down Queensland’s East Coast through the sparkling Whitsunday Islands of the Great Barrier Reef to Southport on the Gold Coast. We’ll overnight at one of the islands or a coastal marina and then assess the weather conditions to decide whether we sail down the eastern or western side of the world’s largest sand island; Fraser Island’, along with Moreton Island and the Stradbroke Islands.
At this time of the year thousands of whales head up and down the Australian East Coast and whale sightings along with dolphins and sea turtles are a common occurrence so bring your camera.
