About this tour
Set sail from Coral Sea Marina for a two-hour cruise around Airlie Beach's Pioneer Bay and Turtle Bay. A purpose-built catamaran with flat decks and plenty of room to move, Sundowner welcomes you aboard with sparkling wine or soft drink and antipasto nibbles. The shallow draft lets you glide close to the Whitsunday coastline's points of interest, including turtle spotting opportunities. The fully licensed bar stocks additional drinks, and the relaxed vibe suits families, couples, and solo travellers alike.

What to expect
You'll board at Coral Sea Marina and settle onto wide, stable decks built for mingling. The catamaran hugs the bay, meandering past rocky points and sheltered coves where green turtles sometimes surface. There's no rigid itinerary—this is about drifting, chatting with fellow passengers, and watching the light change across the water. Staff circulate with nibbles; the bar stays open for top-ups. The two hours feel unhurried rather than packed.
