There is something liberating about bareboat chartering in the Whitsundays with Whitsunday Rent A Yacht... The sheer exhilaration and freedom at the helm of your own yacht or motor cruiser is hard to beat... and the kids will love it too.

Share the fun and adventure with friends or family as you cruise amongst tropical islands. Drop anchor in one of the hundreds of protected bays and inlets, take your dinghy ashore to explore the coral sandy beaches, swim, dive the reefs or fish for dinner. The choice is yours on a sail or drive yourself holiday in the Whitsunday Islands.

Kids of all ages just love the adventure and freedom, the huge variety of things to see and do in this tropical Great Barrier Reef playground. No more 'dad I’m bored' on this holiday or 'can I have more spending money' because once you leave our base to go cruising there’s no need to spend more. We can organise to have your boat fully stocked with a delicious range of food and beverages, yes we even have kids meal packages.
