Set sail and experience the thrill of Matador, a legendary racing yacht. Glide through the Whitsunday Islands, soaking in the turquoise waters, lush islands, and breathtaking white sandy beaches.

Feel the ocean breeze as you relax on the spacious deck or help the crew hoist the sails for a hands-on adventure. Stop at world-class snorkel sites like the Great Barrier Reef's fringing reefs, where you can swim among vibrant coral gardens and marine life. Hill Inlet Lookout offers a picture-perfect view of Whitehaven Beach’s iconic swirling sands.

Enjoy delicious, freshly prepared meals onboard, featuring local produce, crisp salads, fresh fruit, and a hearty pasta dinner. As the sun sets, sip a cool drink and watch the sky transform into hues of orange and pink before stargazing under the pristine Whitsundays night sky.

Wake up to the gentle rocking of the ocean and enjoy breakfast before diving in for another unforgettable snorkel session. After two days of adventure, Matador returns to Airlie Beach in the afternoon, leaving you with incredible memories of sailing, snorkeling, and exploring paradise.

Matador was redeveloped in 2017 and we pride ourselves on having the best of the best crew on one of the finest maxi sailing yachts in the Whitsundays.
