Australia is known worldwide for its laid-back love of the coastal and yachting lifestyle. It's also home to some of the most magnificent cruising grounds on earth, boasting idyllic islands, some dotted with sophisticated resorts others deserted save for unique flora and fauna.
Australia is home to a number of varied and diverse cruising areas that offer a range of expereinces for a luxury yacht charter guest.
The most popular charter destination in Australia is the Whitsunday Islands which lie on the sun-drenched coast of North Queensland. Here is a wonderful cruising ground of 74 islands lying protected from the outer ocean by the world's largest coral reef system, one of the world's Heritage Listed natural wonders, the Great Barrier Reef.
However along with the spectacular Great Barrier Reef, there are many equally impressive attractions worth discovering, many only accessible by yacht. From the sophisticated city that Sydney and her stunning harbour is to the historic hilly treasure of Tasmania and the remote, untouched wilderness of the Kimberleys there is much to see and do here.
