(28)

Lady Enid will offers three tours, exploring the Whitsundays with a premium, relaxed, adults only atmosphere. One beautiful yacht, three exciting options:
- Whitehaven Beach + snorkeling
- Langford Island + snorkeling
- Sunset sailing

Lady Enid recreates that classic age of yachting enjoyed in the 1960’s when sailing was more about elegance and chic than corporate sponsorship and carbon fibre

. The experience of sailing on this beautiful and rare classic gives as much to the day as the the destination. Become involved as much or as little as you like, help set sails, take a turn on the helm or lean back and relax with your favourite book, listen to music or simply daydream and be beguiled at the uninterrupted beauty of the Whitsunday Islands. Lady Enid departs from Coral Sea Marina South in the vibrant seaside town of Airlie Beach. Launched in 1961 this beautiful John G Alden Ketch takes us back in time to the days when Australia’s most famous sailing races were dominated not by technology and sponsorship, but by beautiful timber boats designed with timeless, graceful lines. Lady Enid is well known within the established Australian yachting fraternity and has a long tradition of racing including five Sydney – Hobart races and 15 Brisbane – Gladstone races, sealing her place in Australian racing history when she came first over the line in the first ever Sydney – Brisbane (now Mooloolaba) race in 1964. Built by John Cockle at his builder’s yards in Milperra, Sydney and named after his wife Enid.

On Saturday we are off to Langford Island, with snorkelling around Hook Island.

What's so special about Langford Island? Apart from it being a beautiful sand cay with a lookout and fringing coral reef of its own, it's also a known turtle habitat.

Green Turtles are frequently spotted in the area. They can reach up to 130kg, and 1.2m in length!

The beach inside Hill Inlet is so picturesque, but the best little secret spot is right up the northern tip at Betty's Beach.
With 2 hours of time on Whitehaven Beach in this northern area, you can put yourself in this picture

Cruising Friday, still spots available and the weather looks lovely

Thanks Emilio for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️review!

"Super nice day spent with Lady Enid. Everything is perfectly and professionally arranged. The crew and skipper were amazing. The drinks and food were delicious. Really nice day out there. The vessel is a 60 years old made in wood that was a racing boat. It is super nice experience sailing on a boat like that and with such history behind. We really enjoyed our day. Strongly recommend it !!"

Langford Sand Bar
When the tide comes in, the sand bar starts getting covered by up to 1m of water. Keen walkers can still make it across to the other side. When it's just starting to come in, you get a wonderful illusion of being able to walk on water. It makes great photos!
Sailing to Langford on Saturday, with spots still available. Come join us!

How good is the view at Hill Inlet!!

The weather has been beautiful lately and the forecast for the foreseeable future is more of the same.

What a delightful email to wake up to!! This one is TOO long to put on a photo, and I certainly didn't want to cut any of it out, so you'll just have to read it!

"Hello Iconic
Where do I start. The departure was smooth and we had 23 persons on board. Warmly greeted by our skipper Peter and Crew.
Off we went after a safety presentation.
Peter the skipper was very amusing talking in various languages to all who were on board.
Nobody was left out from his banter. You felt safe in experienced hands.
The young man and the lady's of the crew were equally friendly competent and attentive handling the yacht & to our needs and requests.
The food and beverage that was part of our package was truly exceptional, and no complaints as to the quality or quantity they provided.
My wife and I chose to be in the stern area of the boat where Captain Peter was steering the boat from, as it had an overhead canopy to sheild us from the sun. The yacht is big enough for all visitors to choose their spot or move around as we wished.
The snorkeling period was good and my wife enjoyed seeing the various coral & their colours along with the various fish. I sat with Nico on the inflatable as didn't enjoy snorkeling.
The visit to Whitehaven Beach was amazing, and the water temperature was really warm.
The climb upto the lookout point over the beach was a challenge in the heat, but worth the effort for the view it gave.
Our return back to harbour was good under full sail, and I appreciated the fact we were on a special yacht for the trip. On the return we happy enjoyed individually presented plates of freshly sliced fruit & later sparkling wine with meat & cheese platter. We chatted with several of the yachts guests but that was entirely our choice. A delightful memory bank day. A full day experience. We were greeted back at port & whisked back to our pickup point.
The day on this special Lady Enid. The experience & feel of the yacht was well worth the cost that we paid. I would highly recommend this trip to everyone. 5 Stars."
