Join us for a day of Whitsundays sailing aboard Illusions 2 and see why past customers have said we are the best day cruise in the Whitsundays!
Illusions has been operating in the Whitsundays for over 20 years. Illusions has been owned and operated by Josef since 2004 doing the same trip for all that time, to Blue Pearl Bay on Hayman Island and Langford Reef. This gives you the best experienced crew to help you get the most from your day.
A day aboard Illusions 2 features:
We are not a racing vessel, or claim to be the fastest boat, but we can say we are the most relaxing. Being a stable catamaran you can even make a cup of tea while we are under sail.
We give you the choice of great snorkelling and the opportunity to have a go at a beginners dive. But if you are a certified diver we will give you a memorable dive in the Whitsunday.
We conduct these dives with an emphasis on 100% safety, conducted by us, not contracted
out as some boats do.
Both of the crew are qualified skippers and two of the most experienced dive instructors in the area, with a combined total of 10,000 dives between them.
We are not a fishing boat but from time to time we do drop in a line and have caught some decent size fish at times.
Things to note:
What’s included:
Please note that we have limited spaces for diving. We operate on a first in, first served basis. Please identify when booking in the special requests if you are wanting to dive, and if you are a certified or intro diver. We will do our best to accomodate your request.
Also available:
What to bring:
Sunscreen (preferable reefsafe), hat and towel, wind breaker/jacket (highly recommended but we do have some available on the vessel), water bottle, cash or credit card for extras (eftpos available on board)
Departure: 7.30 am at the latest from Coral Sea Marina. You must meet at the north end of Coral Sea Marina (meeting point B) at 7am if you have not arranged a pick up.
Please do not bring bananas on the boat…..they are bad luck!
Price: $165 Adult, $85 Child (4-14), $50 Infant (0-3), $440 Family (2a+2c)

Great day out
Naomi and Josef were amazing from the start and we can't thank them enough for such a great experience. They saved us from a last minute cancellation with another boat the day before and arranged our transfer at 10.30pm the night before we sailed. The day out itself was perfect, you can relax on the Catamaran as you sail out to the first snorkelling site. Seeing the new coral life growing is an incredible, privileged sight. The areas they took us too were teeming with sea life and the highlight has got to be the turtles we saw at Langford spit, incredible. They create such a personal and friendly environment, lunch is just what you need after a day of snorkelling before you relax on the sail back to the harbour. If you're looking for friendly, knowledgeable people to take you on a magical snorkelling day trip at a great price then look no further.

Perfect Day
Perfect organized tour from pick up till dropp off. When sailing out there were dolphins next to the boat. Snorkling was great. We saw tons of fish, turtels, sandy beaches... Naomi and Joseph gave clear instructions and there was some graet food as well. We really loved our day out!

Lovely day out on the water, the weather gods were finally on our side and this was the perfect way to spend the day. Nice and relaxing and some great snorkelling spots along the way. A fun day for all the family.

Best relaxing dive, snorkel and sailing in Airlie
Thanks to Josef and Naomi Well done for giving Jade and l a wonderful day out in the Whitsundays! The intro diving is a must swimming with the fish and turtles on Hayman Island. Taking our time sailing back was another highlight. Best day out you could ask for from Airlie Beach! Cheers guys
