About this tour

Set sail on a spacious catamaran from Raby Bay for an afternoon exploring Moreton Bay Marine Park. You'll get hands-on tuition at the helm, swim in clear waters, paddle on boards, or stretch out on the deck with a drink whilst drifting past untouched islands. The bay's residents—dolphins, turtles, dugongs—often make appearances. Antipasto and fresh fruit come aboard; bring your own wine if you fancy it. Suits everyone from solo sailors to multi-generation groups.

Highlights

  • Learn to sail a proper catamaran from experienced crew
  • Stand-up paddleboarding on calm bay waters
  • Swim off pristine sandy beaches in national park
  • Dolphins, turtles, and dugongs frequently spotted
  • Generous antipasto boards and seasonal fruit platters
  • Relax on the front net with bay views

What to expect

You'll depart Raby Bay and motor into Moreton Bay Marine Park, where the crew teaches sailing basics and lets you take the wheel. The catamaran anchors at quiet island beaches where you can swim, paddleboard, or lounge on the giant aqua mat. There's no rushing between spots—this is a float-and-soak afternoon, not a tick-box tour. Wildlife sightings depend on the day, but the crew know where to look. Bring a hat and sunscreen; the deck offers little shade once you've left the boat's cover.

Good to know

Alcoholic drinks are excluded but you can bring your own; the esky keeps them cold. Public transport reaches the departure point easily. All fitness levels welcome—paddleboarding and swimming are optional, not mandatory. Best done on calm days; check conditions when you book.
