Embark on a luxurious adults-only sunset sailing experience in the Whitsundays. After a warm welcome and safety briefing, the journey begins from Coral Sea Marina at Airlie Beach, where you’ll enjoy complimentary drinks and an antipasto spread. Take in the sights, learn about local history, flora, and fauna, and soak up the stunning sunset views as Airlie Beach lights up after dark. The event concludes with your return to the Coral Sea Marina.

Your Sunset Sailing Experience begins as you board the sailboat, where a warm, friendly crew will welcome you with a complimentary glass of Aperol Spritz. After introductions and a quick boat tour, the crew will guide you through the safety protocols necessary for a smooth sailing journey. You’ll be shown where to store your personal items and encouraged to take off your shoes to fully enjoy the luxury of barefoot sailing. These preparations mark the start of your delightful afternoon sailing adventure out of the Coral Sea Marina at Airlie Beach.

As the sailboat glides out of the marina, the crew will raise the sails, and your journey into the heart of the Whitsundays begins. You can wander around the boat, settling into the plush, cushioned seating to soak up the sun and enjoy the cooling ocean breeze. With a maximum of 24 guests on board, the boat’s atmosphere remains intimate and relaxing, giving you plenty of quiet spots to unwind and relish the ambience of the voyage. The crew will keep you entertained and informed, pointing out landmarks and sharing intriguing insights about the history, flora, and fauna of Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays.

As the day progresses, you’ll be treated to a delightful spread of antipasto served on a shared plate per couple. This feast includes prawns, crackers, cheese, and a variety of antipasto, all carefully arranged to suit each group’s preferences. Meanwhile, you can order additional drinks from the licensed bar onboard. Choose from a selection of beer, wine, sparkling beverages, and soft drinks to quench your thirst while enjoying the ocean views.

As the sun begins to dip below the horizon, you’ll be mesmerized by the spectacle of a Whitsunday sunset. Revel in the cooling wind, watch the hills of Airlie Beach and its surrounds turn into silhouettes, and marvel as the azure sky transforms into a canvas of warm hues. Once the sun has set, the twinkling lights of Airlie Beach create a panorama, making the return journey a serene and scenic experience.

Your adventure concludes as the sailboat docks back at Coral Sea Marina. From here, you can continue your evening at The Garden Bar & Bistro, a charming spot at the top of the marina, ideal for a post-sail dinner or drink. Alternatively, you can stroll toward Sorrento’s Restaurant, situated just a few hundred meters to the north, or wander along the boardwalk to Coral Sea Resort and the main street of Airlie Beach. For those who prefer a more direct route home, taxis can be easily arranged to pick you up from outside The Garden Bar.
