There are 74 islands within the Whitsundays and a sailing tour around these islands will give you the most amazing views and access to beaches and reef only accessible by boat!

Booking the Atlantic clipper with RatPack is the ONE!

This 2 day 2 night tour departs from Airlie Beach, and you’ll have an awesome few days sailing through the Whitsunday islands full of so many activities including a 8m waterslide, snorkelling and a diving board to show off your skills and give Tom Daley a run for his money! You’ll see all of the top sites and of course a key highlight of the trip is going to the most Instagram-able beach in the world – Whitehaven Beach, this place is the definition of INCREDIBLE and you’ll be wowed at how stunning it is in real life. You’ll have plenty of time to chill out at Whitehaven, enjoy the 100% silica sand and crystal clear water, look out for the manta rays and your crew will take you on a guided bush walk up to hill inlet lookout where you will see ‘THE’ view << trust us this ones a beautyyyyyyy.

Snorkel at North Hook, the best diving and snorkelling around! Look for some amazing species of fish and marine life including the parrot fish, bat fish, cuttlefish, giant clams and clownfish. Not into snorkelling? No worries! There are plenty of other activities such as the waterslide and the diving platform, or if you fancy some chill time, relax up on the massive sun deck on the beanbags with a nice cold drink {not a bad life!}.. There will plenty of other opportunities to see the local wildlife as there is a pod of dolphins who try and get in on the clipper action on 8/10 trips, there is even the opportunity to see humpbacks whales whilst they are migrating (July – Sept).

The Atlantic Clipper is an absolute legendary boat and if you are up for a lot of banter, day long bevvys, hilarious crew, and making unreal memories, this tour is perfect for you! We guarantee that you will have an epic time on this boat, it’s the king of the whitsundays for a party and good times. We’re talking a 12-person hot tub, a fancy dress show by the crew onboard and the opportunity to win the King or Queen of the Clipper! You’ll be looked after by the incredibly friendly crew from the Clipper team and all of your meals are prepared and cooked for you by the onboard chef so you can kick back and relax. The evenings on the clipper are east coast renowned, you’ll enjoy crazy nights with your clipper mates, the legends that form the crew all with a cold beer {or 5} whilst watching the stars and partying on a boat in the middle of one of Australia’s most desirable locations.

We love this trip because it’s everything we love about travelling, beers, banter and beautiful places, you’ll make memories that’ll last a lifetime from your time on the clipper and will have stories to tell for sure….

Amazing service by the team at Ratpack. They helped us to book our camper and tours for the east coast, making a really simply a straightforward process, saving me hours of research and deliberation. I trust them implicitly. Never sales-y, or pushy, always glad to answer queries. Took a real interest in us and our trip. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

I booked my campervan to travel in NZ via RatPack Travel, who managed to find me the perfect van at relatively short notice and with a discount! It was a real help to have someone do the searching and mediate with the company, once they had dates and information from me. Thanks for the prompt and friendly service!

Itinerary:

Day 1: Meet your crew at 1:30pm at the marina and get ready to sail!! You’ll head off and cruise around the beautiful Whitsundays islands whilst you get to know the rest of the legends on board, kick back with a beer or 3 and enjoy the views. The crew onboard will cook you an epic dinner and provide you with bants and entertainment for the evening!!

Day 2: Wake up and take a bush walk up to the 4th most photographed location in Australia. Gaze down on the 7km of pure white silica sand of Whitehaven Beach. Sunbathe/swim on the beautiful beach for a couple of hours. Head back to the boat for a snorkel/dive at one of our pristine dive/snorkel locations in and around North Hook, then sit down in the spacious galley for a sumptuous lunch, freshly prepared by crew. Our extensive permit allows us to go to all top locations in the Whitsundays. Spend the afternoon with friends slipping / sliding / spa’ing / swimming/sloshing and sunning or just sit and enjoy the view on our comfy bean bags. Get on board for some evening drinks and prep yourself for your delicious dinner. Let our crew show you how we like to have fun on the top deck, or chill out with a cold one in the air-conditioned galley with our board games. Fall into bed for a good kip before our final day tomorrow…

Day 3: The crew will wake you up to have a yummy breaky before you begin your last day of sailing. Sail to another beautiful snorkel/dive spot and splish/splash/spa/slide and dive for some final fun on the Clipper Head home, for a final briefing and then spruce yourself up for a night (with any crew on land) for the after party.
