Cruise 1 - Blue Pearl Bay Snorkelling Adventure
A comfortable 2 hour sail from the mainland, Blue Pearl Bay is the site of some of Queensland’s most spectacular fringing reef. See it for yourself and snorkel or Scuba Dive amongst the beautiful coral and colourful tropical fish.

After exploring the bay, a delicious buffet lunch is served on board Maxi Ragamuffin before setting sail for the return leg via the Whitsunday Passage. A gourmet afternoon platter is served during the return sail to the mainland.

Snorkelling
See beautiful coral and thousands of tropical fish in waist deep water just metres from the beach. For the more adventurous, a short paddle brings you to spectacular coral bommies and the largest Blue Pearl Bay residents like Maori Wrasse and Coral Trout. Snorkelling is supervised and for the inexperienced, instruction is available on board. All snorkelling gear is supplied free of charge.

Diving
Introductory Dive - Even if you haven’t dived before, try your first dive with our qualified dive instructors (subject to a diving medical questionnaire on board; persons 45 years and over are required to provide a diving medical from a doctor). All gear provided.
Certified Dive - Our dive instructors can show you spectacular tropical reef at the best sites in the Whitsundays. All gear provided.

Cruise 2 - Whitehaven Beach Picnic Adventure
Sixteen nautical miles from the mainland is a place which has become one of the world’s most famous beaches. The water at Whitehaven is usually nothing less that crystal clear, so it’s a great spot to enioy a swim in the warm tropical waters of the Whitsundays. A picnic lunch is served under the shade of the trees backing the beach, before sailing home again past some beautiful islands and spectacular scenery.

Picnic
Its an informal affair and yet the menu's exotic. A selection of fresh tortilla rolls with satay chicken or vegetarian salad, rare roast beef and salad rools and a fresh tropical fruit platter. A gourmet afternoon platter is served on our return sail to the mainland.
