5.00The crew are amazing! We were the first on Whitehaven beach and the crew made sure we were looked after. I learnt alot through this experience thanks to Alex the skipper. Andreas and keana made an exceptional job of taking us snorkeling and cooking amazing meals for us. At night they had lights that lit up the water around the boat so we were able to see sharks, dolphins and plenty more impressive fish. I was also impressed with the music they played which was nice calming music but still tasteful, it suited the settings very well. The 2 nights was a perfect way to see the Whitsundays and I'd definitely recommend this sailing trip to everyone!
Amazing tour

5.00We just returned from our trip on Spank Me. The tour was fantastic, great snorkeling spots and of course Whitehaven beach. The crew really made it, especially Max and Chris who were excellent. Max was a calm and reassuring Skipper, who gave the guests input on different options of what they could do and communicated really well. Chris was always busy and made sure all guests had the experience they wanted - whether they were after a more party vibe or a "watching the fish in the blue light" vibe. The sleeping area is a bit cramped and definitely hot, as communicated, so take plenty of water and plan in a day when you get back to have a good shower and catch up on sleep.

5.00Lovely experience. Was around age groups from 20-27 and was a good vibe. W head max, Xavier and ash on the boat and they were great. The snorkelling was fun. Bring some long clothes and a sleeping mask. Sleeping arrangements aren’t perfect but ok for two nights
So much fun!

5.00We enjoyed this adventure. The snorkeling was amazing, and we were the first ones on Whitehaven Beach in the morning! The crew was great, very friendly and interactive with the guests. Sleeping quarters were tight, which was mentioned in the description. On our trip the age range was 22-38 so we initially felt out of place, being 60+. But the crew did a great job of making us feel welcome.
Great experience, would 100% recommend this trip. At least if carys, Ruby and meg are on it!

5.00Skipper Alex and his crew of Kate and Andrea (Diego) could not do enough for us, and they genuinely want everyone to have the time of their lives, which I did. I can't recommend this tour enough. The food was plentiful and the evening meals were delicious, with lots to go around. We saw colourful varieties and sizes of fish, and some very beautiful coral during the three snorkelling swims. Some of us were lucky enough to swim above a turtle. Two nights watching the sunset and having dinner after dropping anchor, and then stars gazing was just wonderful. It's an early start on day two and all I'll say is that is it soooo worth it. The playlists were spot on. A few of us were chatting as day two was coming to a close, and were saying that we didn't want to get off the boat the next morning. It's a trip I'll never forget. Thanks so much guys x
