Magnetic Island Lunchtime Sailing Cruise

Itinerario

1. Sail along the beautiful Magnetic Island coastline searching for the perfect spot to anchor for a few hours. The hosts onboard will check-in and find out if you have any preferences on the bay to visit and provide recommendations based on the wind and weather conditions on the day.

   1 h

2. One of our favourite spots to anchor is Radical Bay, a protected bay which is accessible solely by boat or hiking. It is surrounded by breathtaking granite boulders and striking rock formations, this secluded gem offers a beautiful beach and crystal clear waters. Once anchored, guests can dive into the water for a swim, wander along the shore, or chill out on the giant inflatable mat alongside the boat, perhaps with a glass of wine. After some fun and relaxation, a delicious lunch sourced from local produce is served, featuring prawns and an antipasto platter. You will also be served Australian Organic Wines, local beers or soft drinks while enjoying your onboard lunch. *In the event of northerly winds, we may alternatively anchor at Arthur Bay or Florence Bay.

   2 h

3. Enjoy a return sail back to Nelly Bay, either relaxing in the bean bags or try your turn at the helm.

• 5Five-Star Sailing, Fabulous Food and Not a Cyclone in Sight! ⛵️😂

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My husband and I were visiting family in Townsville when we embarked upon what proved to be the most glorious day’s sailing. The entire experience was effortless. We caught the ferry from Townsville and were warmly met by the crew, whose impeccable sailing skills inspired such confidence that even the most cautious among us could surrender ourselves happily to the sea. The weather was magnificent, although I confess I was immediately reassured upon reading the noticeboard and learning there was no immediate threat of a cyclone. 😳😂 Until that moment, I had believed a little rain was the greatest peril confronting us! Lunch was absolutely delicious, plentiful and beautifully served—it felt less like dining aboard a sailing boat and more like being indulged in a five-star restaurant upon the sea. The crew were extraordinarily generous, offering a wonderful variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks throughout the day. A delightful young hen’s group aboard embraced the occasion with admirable enthusiasm, leaping from the side of the boat into the ocean with enviable ease. We were quite content to remain aboard and admire their courage—and, in true mature fashion, preserve both our dignity and our hairstyles. 😂 It was a truly memorable experience: magnificent sailing, beautiful weather, exceptional food and the warmest hospitality. We are enormously grateful to the wonderful crew for giving us such a special day. Highly recommended!

• 5Fabulous day and great lunch

  Fabulous trip today on Pilgrim. Clayton and Jasper could not have been more helpful or kind. They looked after us so well and made sure we were safe, comfortable and well fed. The day was gorgeous, sailing beautiful and lunch and drinks plentiful and delicious.

• 5Exceeded my expectations!

  This is such luxurious sail, and they do sail. We had god breeze, 8.5knt solid up the Eastern side of Magnetic Island. Comfort of a beanbag on deck, dry, and smooth. Radical Bay is protected bay to anchor for lunch, feeding some big Cod that know the boat, and a swim in 24c water. Clayton and Chevaune engaging, while keeping the frinks flowing from the open bar included for the whole trip. Lunch was well, next level for variety, local prawns, meats, crusty baguette, cheeses, crackers, chicken taco, salad bowl, home made chutney, with incredible range of fruit pieces. All in a wooden tray just for you. Anove my expectations for sure.

About Magnetic Island

Magnetic Island, a short ferry ride from Townsville in north Queensland, is a hilly island of granite bays, bush walks, wild koalas and rock-wallabies.

Known locally as Maggie, the island lies in Cleveland Bay a few kilometres off Townsville and takes its name from Captain James Cook, who wrote in 1770 that it seemed to affect his compass. About half of it is national park, with eucalypt woodland and granite boulders above a coast cut into bays, and the small settlements of Picnic Bay, Nelly Bay, Arcadia and Horseshoe Bay sit around the shore.
