Come with us on one of our sailing adventure-holidays!

Do you want to expand your knowledge of navigation & seamanship, gain miles & experience, work towards your RYA Yachtmaster Offshore or Ocean qualifications or complete the offshore sailing adventure you've always secretly dreamt of!

If so, then you have the chance to and much more on Sunshine Sailing Australia's Offshore Sail Training Adventures onboard our sassy Sunfast 37.

After settling in and finalizing our passage on the first day, we will aim to leave as soon as possible bound for our desired destination. We will stop at many exotic places including coastal townships, the likes of Port Stephens or Coffs Harbour; coral cays, maybe Lady Musgrave or East Diamond Island off the Great Barrier Reef [just to name a few] before arriving at our destination. Have fun exploring the coast and islands, coral cays, headlands, beaches and anchorages.

Our RYA
Yachtmaster Offshore and Ocean Instructors will help you learn anything you need to expand your experience and skill level. There will be a continued practice of sailing skills towards your next qualification. Work towards the RYA Day Skipper, RYA Coastal Skipper, RYA Yachtmaster Offshore or even take celestial sights and practice for the RYA Yachtmaster Ocean.

These are hands-on sailing adventures; if you want to be pampered, book the QE2! 


Sail Training, Adventures and Milecatchers
