About this tour
A customisable private boat charter around the Whitsundays aboard the Axopar 37, available for 2–8 hours. You steer the itinerary—snorkel pristine coral reefs, beach-hop between bays, walk island trails, or anchor for pure relaxation. Your skipper navigates while you decide what matters: the boat is yours alone, refreshments and snorkelling kit included, and you can bring your own alcohol (cans and bottles only).
Highlights
- Exclusive private vessel—no shared tours, no scheduled stops unless you choose them
- Snorkel abundant coral reefs with equipment supplied

- Personal skipper handles navigation; you relax or direct the route

What to expect
You'll board the Axopar 37 at a designated Whitsundays location with your skipper and any guests you've brought. Discuss your preferences—reef snorkelling, specific beaches, sheltered bays—and the skipper will chart a course tailored to your group. Throughout the day, you'll move between stops at your pace: anchor to snorkel, cruise to a new beach, explore shallow bays, or simply drift and swim. Water and light refreshments are available on board. The skipper handles all navigation, safety and boat operation while you enjoy the water and scenery. You'll return at your pre-arranged end time.

Good to know
This suits anyone wanting customised access to the Whitsundays without tour-group schedules or crowds—couples, families, small groups of friends. It works well if you have specific interests (keen snorkellers, beach explorers, photographers) that don't fit standard itineraries. Children are welcome; infants must sit on an adult's lap, and prams or strollers can be accommodated. Not suitable if you have spinal injuries or serious cardiovascular conditions; the boat operates in open water and wave conditions vary. Catering is not included as standard—budget $30 per person for morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea, or $90 for a charcuterie board (serves up to 5). Alcohol is permitted but glass containers are banned. Group size and specific pricing depend on vessel capacity and your chosen duration.
