From Airlie Beach: Hook Island Cultural Tour, Sail & Snorkel – Queensland, Australia

EXPERIENCE

Take part in an adults only sailing experience. A day on board Lady Enid is like no other sailing trip in the Whitsundays. A cut above, Lady Enid promises barefoot luxury and comfort, with a highly attentive level of service. Delectable meals are provided, and sparkling wine is served with antipasto in the afternoon.

After hotel pickup, head to the marina to board the boat. Once onboard Lady Enid you will be introduced to the crew. You will be given a courtesy bottle of spring water which can be refilled throughout the day as required. As you head out to sea, tea and coffee will be served with fresh scones, clotted cream and strawberries.

Sail into the calm waters of Nara Inlet, on Hook Island to explore the Ngaro Cultural Site, up a short but steep bushwalking track. Immerse yourself in the thought-provoking displays depicting Ngaro life in the Whitsunday islands, one of the oldest Australian Indigenous cultures.

Lunch will be served on board Lady Enid, in the calm waters of Nara Inlet, where you can admire the fjord-like scenery, bird life and marine life that surrounds us.

After lunch, sail to a vibrant snorkelling spot at a beautiful nearby reef on the famous Hook Island. With colourful corals and a plethora of tropical fish to see, it’s a highlight of a trip to the Whitsundays. Snorkelling is optional and guests not taking part in snorkelling can sit and enjoy a cool beer or glass of wine from the bar. Spend approximately 40 minutes at the snorkelling site. All snorkelling equipment is provided, including wetsuits and noodles if required.

Sail back to Airlie Beach with a glass of Australian sparkling wine in hand. Enjoy an antipasto cheese platter to finish off a truly memorable day.

*Order of activities changes depending on the tides, and snorkelling may be the first activity of the day.
