Snorkel and Sail Day Trip - Whitsundays Islands - Depart Airlie Beach

Posted by Soumya Santosh from Australia on4 Jan 2022
Soumya Santosh said... I looked around for a few sailing trips and settled for this one due to their availability according to our schedule and their cheap price. But let me warn you, this was indeed the most disappointing trip I have ever had. The boat was painfully slow, the crew was just straight up disinterested and the toilets were so small and filthy! The pictures dont justify the situation of the boat at all. The day we went out, the weather was a rough and we started drifting away in the open ocean with no freaking fins provided to us. There was only one deckie looking after 27 people in his small boat. We wanted help, since we were drifted farther and couldn't swim against the current but he was having some sort of issues with his boat and no one came to help us. We were 4 people who drifted away and since this deckie wasn't coming to help us, we panicked. Another boat had to come to rescue us. Im glad I made it out of this trip without drowning or injuring myself. Once we got back to the boat, none of the crew members apologised for their non professional behaviour. They also anchored their boat in the middle of nowhere and not at the marina while returning back and we had to freaking take trips in the small boat to reach the marina. Instead of being back at 5:30pm, we reached back at 7:30 pm. The crew was just downright unprofessional and I was really pissed by the way they handled the whole situation. The food was alright but really unhygienic conditions. The deck is very slippery and not safe for kids. There was no mask wearing mandate and no social distancing either. I will not recommend this trip to anyone.
