Portland Roads Sailing the Whitsundays

Offering bespoke self-skippered (bareboat) experiences through the Ancient Ngaro Sea Country of the Whitsundays. Ideal for adventurous, eco-conscious travellers, seeking freedom and a connection with nature.

Their guests charter high-quality sailing catamarans, from budget to premium, and enjoy six days of navigation through pristine reefs, secluded anchorages, and world heritage waters at their own pace.

These experiences stand out for their commitment to sustainability and cultural respect. Portland Roads is carbon-neutral — in fact, carbon-positive. They hold Ecotourism Australia's Advanced Eco certification, Climate Action Business certification, and Recognition of Culture accreditation.

Their team includes a Marine Biologist, a Great Barrier Reef Master Reef Guide, and the legendary solo sailor Jesse Martin, all passionately supporting their efforts towards tomorrow's reef today.

Guests without prior sailing experience are guided by thorough Maritime Briefings to confidently take the helm.

Nearby coral reefs, tranquil bays, white-sand beaches and turquoise islands provide ample opportunities for snorkelling, swimming, or simply basking in tropical seclusion.

With two decades of history rooted in sustainable sailing and Indigenous partnerships, Portland Roads Sailing the Whitsundays invites everyone to discover the Whitsundays with a genuine sense of stewardship.
