The Whitsundays, made up of 74 islands are located in the center of the Great Barrier Reef. Situated between Mackay and Townsville off the North Queensland coast, the waters surrounding these islands are part of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. It is known as the eighth wonder of the world. With her classic lines and timeless elegance, the 72' schooner "Windjammer" is considered to be one of the most beautiful yachts ever built in Australia. Built in the best traditions of the past, offering sailing as it was in yesteryear, this is where Windjammers resemblance to her predecessors end. Below decks she is elegantly appointed with air-conditioned cabin accommodation. Her interior is adorned with New Guinea rosewood and fittings from a bygone era. Accommodation is fully air-conditioned with a comfortable lounge and dining facilities below. The large alfresco dining and lounging area on deck is perfect for those long relaxed lunches or just curling up with your favourite book. If you are feeling active, there is plenty of time to snorkel the fringing coral reefs, roam national park trails or just stroll one of the many secluded beaches. |

Whilst Windjammer is fully crewed with Captain, cook and deckhand, guests are encouraged to take the wheel, tend the sheets, or for the more adventurous, climb the ratlines and fine-tune the canvas 70' above the deck. |
