With our overnight crewed yacht charters in the Whitsundays,
you only need the
basics onboard. As space
is limited onboard a small
soft bag each is your limit.
No sleeping bags, sheets
or pillows are needed either.
During the warmer months
you will need light clothes,
swimmers, plenty of sunscreen,
hat, sunglasses, toiletries,
towel and camera. In the
cooler months you will also
need a warmer coat for the
evening and maybe long trousers.
The main thing to remember
is a towel and swimmers.
With most overnight crewed Whitsunday yacht charter, you will
need to check in the
