These boats usually cater for the smaller groups of between 10-16 passengers however some vessels do carry more.

If you want the thrill of super fast sailing, snorkelling and beautiful beaches and are not too worried about having your own cabin then one of these boats may be for you.

| Sail and Dive vessels are especially fitted out to offer you the ability to not only visit the Whitsunday Islands but also dive the coral reefs of the Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef. The Islands offer colour, soft corals and species of fish not often, or sometimes never, found on the Great Barrier Reef. The Reef, as it is affectionately known, offers the reverse. |
