A yacht day during your island stay
Spend the day swimming, sharing the deck and taking in the islands from the water. Come back to your room on Hamilton Island with the rest of your holiday still ahead.
Hamilton Island. A day of your own.
Keep your Hamilton Island stay, add a private yacht day, or trade the room ashore for a few nights in the Whitsundays.
Find my charterBeyond your island stay
Spend a day beyond the marina, with a swim, a beach stop and your own group aboard.
Hamilton Island can be the place you come back to after a day out, or the start of a holiday aboard. Take the morning beyond the marina for a beach visit, a swim and an afternoon with your own people.
Whitehaven and Chalkies Beach are places to put on your wish list. Keep the day spacious enough to enjoy the stop you choose, with the skipper shaping the route around conditions.
Give the day to the water
Keep your island base or stay aboard when the day ends. Both begin with the time you want together.
Whitehaven or Chalkies Beach
Make a beach the reason for the day. Whitehaven's sand or a stop at Chalkies can shape the request, with the cruise and time ashore balanced around your yacht and conditions.
Carry on into the evening
A stay aboard takes the holiday beyond a day out. Enjoy the evening together, wake to the islands and leave room for a slower start before the next swim or beach.
Make yourself at home aboard
Explore the yacht's spaces for a day together, or picture the cabins and quiet corners you would enjoy on a longer stay.
A few practical details.
Start with your people and dates. The finer details can take shape from there.
- Fit the charter around your island stay
- The airport and marina are separate parts of the journey. Confirm the boarding time and meeting point before committing to a flight connection, with room for luggage, the transfer and guests arriving separately. Accommodation and return-transfer details can be discussed after your first enquiry.
- Separate day guests from overnight guests
- A yacht may welcome a larger group during the day than it can accommodate overnight. For a stay aboard, start with the number of people sleeping on the yacht and the cabin arrangements they need.
Your time aboard
A private day or several nights, with the arrival, boarding and final morning planned together.
The whole charter cost
Compare the complete cost for your group, dates and time aboard. A private day and several nights in the islands have different inclusions and running costs.
Understand charter costs- The yacht and time aboard
- Compare the day or weekly charter fee for your dates, with the minimum time aboard, guest limits and tax treatment stated in the quote.
- Food, drinks and cruising
- Check what is included and whether an APA or other expense allowance applies. Food, drinks, fuel and route costs can be charged separately from the charter fee.
- Getting to and from the yacht
- Include transfers, marina charges and any yacht relocation in the comparison. Confirm delivery fees and any gratuity separately.
Add a yacht to your island holiday
Tell us when you are coming and who is joining you. A private day or a longer stay aboard is enough of an idea to begin.
Find my charterBefore you go.
Can we arrange a private yacht charter while staying on Hamilton Island?
Yes. A private day can fit around an island stay, and ALANI is one Hamilton Island-based option to explore. Share your accommodation, date and guest count so the meeting point and return time can be arranged for the trip.
Can we fly to Hamilton Island and board the yacht that day?
That may work when the flight, transfer and charter times fit together. Discuss the proposed arrival time in the follow-up and confirm the connection before booking travel. A night ashore can give the group more breathing room.
Can a Hamilton Island charter include Whitehaven Beach?
Whitehaven is a route request to discuss for your yacht and duration. Allow enough time for the cruise and beach visit; the skipper will consider sea conditions and the practical arrangements for getting ashore.
Can we finish the charter at Airlie Beach?
Ask about a different finishing point when you enquire. The answer depends on the yacht's schedule, boarding arrangements and any relocation cost. Agree both ends of the trip before arranging onward travel.
