Easter Holiday Charters
Shorter breaks perfect for families discovering Australia's most accessible tropical destinations.
Easter holidays are ideal for shorter 3–5 day escapes in Australia's most accessible tropical waters. These breaks are perfect for families with younger kids and first-time charter guests seeking manageable itineraries with plenty of swimming, beach time, and water activities.
Each destination offers its own distinct charm: from the peaceful Hawkesbury River's coastal villages to the world-class snorkelling of the Whitsundays. Travelling by yacht also makes it easy to combine destinations, allowing you to maximise holiday time by blending contrasting experiences into one seamless itinerary.
