2-Night Sailing Trimaran · Airlie Beach
Avatar is the lowest-priced two-night trip in our comparison at $599, on a sailing trimaran with 26 guests and three crew. The trip covers Whitehaven Beach, Hill Inlet Lookout and fringing reef snorkelling. You are back early on day three, between about 8:00 and 9:30am.
Avatar is open to all ages. Travelling with children? Add their ages in the notes and we confirm the fare when you book.
OzSail picks snorkel sites based on the conditions of the day.
If the budget decides, Avatar is the boat to look at. All meals, snorkel gear and stinger suits are in the fare, and the large nets between the hulls are where most people spend the sailing hours.
OzSail describes Avatar as the only trimaran in the Whitsundays, built as a racing yacht rather than a cruising boat. Twenty-six guests is social without being crowded.
Plan your onward travel around the early return on the third morning. And bring bottled water in summer: the tap water on board is not cold.
