Sailing experience was amazing

Leanne 3 January 2024

We took the Providence sailing ship to Whitehaven beach and it was unforgettable! The food, music and trip was unique and fun. The beach was incredible and getting to and from this iconic beach in an iconic ship made it all the the more special! Highly recommend this experience!

Amazing day trip to Whitehaven and snorkelling stop along the way. The crew was fantastic and there were plenty of snacks too! If the weather gets rough, they have spray jackets, but I would recommend to bring your own for extra comfort.

Sailing through the Whitsundays was amazing!
