Champagne Sailing Cruise 2 Hours Tour (Shared Cruise or Boat Charter)

Set sail on the "Epsilon," a world-class luxury yacht, for a sophisticated two-hour journey through the calm, protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater. This shared sailing experience is designed for small groups and couples looking to enjoy the iconic sights of the coast from a unique perspective. Whether you are looking for a bright midday excursion or a romantic twilight voyage, the Epsilon offers a blend of racing pedigree and modern comfort.

Tour Highlights and Itinerary

Departing from Main Beach, your journey begins with a warm greeting from the captain and a brief safety orientation. As the yacht glides out, you’ll marvel at the fleet of super-yachts at the Southport Yacht Club and Marina Mirage, and pass the opulent Palazzo Versace Hotel. The route continues past Sea World, Wave Break Island, and the Seaway toward the natural beauty of South Stradbroke Island.

Throughout the cruise, keep an eye out for local wildlife; the Broadwater is home to pelicans, sea eagles, cormorants, and terns. Lucky guests may even spot dolphins surfacing alongside the hull. As you sail, your captain will share the fascinating history of the vessel—a veteran of four Sydney to Hobart Yacht Races and a divisional winner in 2001.

Onboard Refreshments

As you relax on deck, you will be served:

• Complimentary Drinks: Two glasses of sparkling wine (Champagne) or soft drinks per person.
• Platter: A delicious selection of cheese, crackers, fresh fruit, and prawns.
• Note: A non-seafood platter option is available upon request.

Daily Cruise Options

We offer three distinct departure times from Monday to Saturday to suit your schedule:

• Racing Pedigree: Competed in four Sydney to Hobart races, including a divisional win in 2001.
• Global Adventurer: Has competed in Hamilton Island regattas and cruised extensively along the New Zealand coastline before making the Gold Coast her home.
