Project Orientation
On your first day you will need to plan to arrive at the office in Airlie Beach in sufficient time for a tour briefing before you set sail.
Accommodation and Meals
You can choose between multi-share cabins or twin/double cabins and the cost of the programme will vary accordingly. The cabin accommodation is comfortable and air conditioned and has 11 double, twin or shared cabins. The cabins have comfy beds, personal reading lamps and there are separate male and female bathrooms with hot showers and domestic style toilets.
We can also offer you pre and post trip accommodation for an additional cost so that you can make sure you don’t miss the ship’s departure! This accommodation is in a backpackers hostel in Airlie Beach with shared or twin/double options available.
On-board you will be provided with freshly prepared meals that you can enjoy in the open-air restaurant, which benefits from spectacular ever-changing Whitsunday views.

Free Time
Before or after your trip there is so much for you to do either travelling up and down the East Coast. But before you venture off why not spend some time in Airlie Beach chilling out and partying!
There is lots that you can do in Airlie Beach including rainforest trips, waterfalls & swimming holes, skydiving, parasailing, horse riding, fishing, sea kayaking, bush walking and tropical island visits. The town benefits from a manmade tropical lagoon, which you can enjoy for free 24 hours a day, all year round. In the evening the town comes to life and there are loads of bars, cafes, restaurants and nightclubs for you to enjoy.
