Airlie Beach Bare Boat Charters
Airlie Beach is the home of the bare boat charter industry in the Whitsundays region. Its main focal point is Able Point marina from which a number of bare boat charter companies operate. Able point is a large marina with hundreds of marina berths and is also the home of the crewed yacht charter industry. Here you will find almost every ex Sydney To Hobart racing yacht, now in charter survey and ready to take you out for a day sailing the turquoise waters of the Whitsunday Passage.
As far as the bare boat industry is concerned there is a huge range of boats on offer. The sailing boats are the most popular and you can choose to charter a mono hull yacht or a sailing catamaran. Size varies depending on the number of passengers but almost all are the most modern versions. Fontaine Pajot, Perry, Leopard and Lagoon catamarans are the most common designs. In the mono hulls, Hunter Yachts, Beneteau and several others fill the fleets.
Getting to Airlie beach for your bare boat charter couldnt be easier. You can fly to Proserpine airport on the mainland and catch the connecting shuttle bus or you can fly in direct to Hamilton Island and catch the ferry straight to Able point marina. If you want to pick your boat up from Hamilton Island, this can be arranged but there is an extra charge for delivering the boat from Airlie Beach to Hamilton Island. If you are driving to the Whitsundays, security parking is readily available.
The Airlie Beach region in the Whitsunday Islands is one of worlds most perfect places for a bare boat holiday.
