The Best Australia Crewed Yacht Charter Guide for 2025 and 2026
Charter a luxury motor yacht or crewed catamaran in Australia and discover Sydney, the Whitsundays and the famed Great Barrier Reef
Australia has some of the best yacht charter waters to be found anywhere in the world, with the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland being the best known.  The World Heritage Park of the Great Barrier Reef protects the 74 islands around the Whitsundays, producing spectacular snorkelling and diving.  In addition to the Whitsundays, you can also travel to North Queensland and charter a yacht out of Cairns to explore more remote destinations on your sailing cruise.
Australia's climate is nearly perfect for yachting vacations all year round – not too hot, with shorts and t-shirt being normal clothing at virtually all times, and an average of over 8 hours sunshine per day!
If you're looking for just a day out on the water with family and friends, why not hire a Sydney day charter yacht. Australia truly gives you the beauty of the South Pacific, combined with the sophistication of a first world country, with some of the finest wines and dining to be found anywhere. You can find total seclusion in remote bays on your charter yacht, or stop at some the finest 5 star resorts in the world.
