Coral Trekker

Nothing quite matches the feeling of standing on the deck of a square rigger with the wind in your face and the smell of salt in the air, as you watch the huge red sails billowing aloft. 

All distinctions of age, sex and nationality disappear in a communion of yells and laughter as we haul ropes and prepare to set sail for the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsunday Islands aboard our lovingly restored 23m Norwegian sailing ship 'Coral Trekker'.

Join the crew in the rigging (they'll show you the ropes) or just sit back and relax on the wide timber decks. The itinerary is unhurried. Setting aside lots of time for strolling secluded beaches, snorkelling, scuba diving, hiking national park trails and beach barbecues. Coral Trekker has a scuba diving compressor on board. The scuba instructor can cater for novice and introductory divers.

 
Built in Norway in 1939, this traditional sailing ship displays a unique and charming character. With topsail's, t'gallants and yardarms she has all the old world charm and romance of yesteryear. Accommodation is in double and 4 berth cabins and caters for a maximum of 15 guests. The crew of 4 includes Captain, chef, dive instructor and deckhand. 

Whether traveling alone, with a group or family, you will have a wonderful time aboard Coral Trekker. This is a sailing experience suitable for all ages, with elements of adventure, participation and lots of activities ... in the true spirit of tall ship sailing.
