Australia is a continent surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean and the Tasman Sea. There are many exciting options for luxury superyacht guests to cruise the beautiful coastline and experience a memorable Australian yacht charter.
Australia is the height of beauty and contrast, with a diverse set of attractions to explore including mountains, rivers, vineyards, marine life, reefs, deserts, diverse topography, tropical bush, stunning crystal waters, unique and amazing animals, as well as a laid back and friendly local population.
The main attractions of Australia range from its great sandy deserts in the outback to the coral reefs and tropical forests. The best way to reach many of these places and experience these adventures is by superyacht.
Australia’s coastline also offers a huge range of environments in which one can experience every possible water-related activity from fishing, diving and snorkelling, to surfing and sailing.
One of the most sort after destinations to visit by superyacht in Australia is the Whitsunday Islands. The Whitsundays are an archipelago of 70 islands, situated at the centre of the Great Barrier Reef. The islands have over 90 national parks, all with a relatively undisturbed landscape, many of which can be explored along hiking and trekking trails. Fraser Island in the Whitsundays is the largest sandy island in the world with a beautiful bird sanctuary and crystal clear turquoise waters where you can stand waist-deep as black tip sharks and manta rays glide around your legs. It’s a truly mesmerising and unforgettable experience.
Other popular Australian yacht destinations include Hawkesbury and Pittwater in New South Wales. Close to Sydney, here you can mix intense sailing with onshore activities in the city, such as visiting the Sydney Opera House, taking a harbour bridge walk, shopping, fine dining and embracing the excellent nightlife.
There are other less travelled destinations in Australia which are also perfect to explore by superyacht, such as the Gold Coast, Melbourne, Hobart, Tasmania, Cairns, the Kimberley Coast and Perth.
Australia has a coastline that spreads approximately 410,000 sq km. Such a vast area of sea makes it a year-round yachting destination with a diverse and impressive range of choice. Anytime you visit, there will always be a port or safe anchorage, with each offering a unique experience unlike anywhere else. \
It may be a remote destination, however the distance is part of the beauty, and adds to what must be one of the most memorable luxury superyacht experiences in the world.
