Your experience
Stop 1
Sail along the beautiful Magnetic Island coastline searching for the perfect spot to anchor for a few hours. The hosts onboard will check-in and find out if you have any preferences on the bay to visit and provide recommendations based on the wind and weather conditions on the day.
Stop 2
One of our favourite spots to anchor is Radical Bay, a protected bay which is accessible solely by boat or hiking. It is surrounded by breathtaking granite boulders and striking rock formations, this secluded gem offers a beautiful beach and crystal clear waters. Once anchored, guests can dive into the water for a swim, wander along the shore, or chill out on the giant inflatable mat alongside the boat, perhaps with a glass of wine. After some fun and relaxation, a delicious lunch sourced from local produce is served, featuring prawns and an antipasto platter. You will also be served Australian Organic Wines, local beers or soft drinks while enjoying your onboard lunch. *In the event of northerly winds, we may alternatively anchor at Arthur Bay or Florence Bay.
Stop 3
Enjoy a return sail back to Nelly Bay, either relaxing in the bean bags or try your turn at the helm.
