What a way to spend a week! Our motto was “another day, another ***” and each *** was unique and beautiful. Portland Roads has everything on board we needed and was extremely comfortable. Looking forward to doing it again and would highly recommend.

Immersing yourself into this experience left us in a holiday state never experienced before. To learn how to skipper the boat Portland Roads in itself, was so rewarding. To meet such passionate people in business and to learn so much became an added bonus. Our kids loved john's stories about the Ngaro and the marine park. We've joined the Big Blue Army and we will be back, very soon. Thank you from the Needham crew.

Our dream trip to sail the Whitsundays began in early May 2019 and we had a magical two weeks on Portland Roads a 420 Lagoon catamaran, with two other couples over our two weeks of sailing, around this amazing environment. The Portland Roads team that supported our holiday was professional, well organised and friendly and made us feel we were very well looked after. We received great hospitality and advice from Johnathon, the principal of the company. Mike inducted us the use of the boat and kept us on track. In the last 4 days of our trip when there was just two of us on board, we had Deano as our sail guide, an experience we highly recommend. As this was our first trip of bare boat sailing we received great advice from Johnathon who drew up a proposed itinerary for our trip around the Whitsunday Islands, including a visit to the lovely Palm Bay resort on Long Island, which we will definitely visit again on our next sail with Portland Roads. One of the great features of Portland Roads was access to the “Ocean Club” at Abell wharf, which provided full bathroom, laundry and BBQ facilities when were docked overnight at the marina. This facility, which was right next door to our mooring, allowed us to have a refreshing shower and access to washing machines, free coffee, a beautiful deck and BBQ facilities. We will certainly be re-booking over the next few years to re-visit some of our favourite places and explore some of the new places we just did not have time to visit on our first trip. Based on our experience, as a relatively new skipper, I would certainly recommend engaging a sail guide for at least first few days of a bare boat at experience. For us, this would provide us with a reinforcement for all the operations on the boat, but it also provides everyone on board the excitement of the full sailing experience. We can also get an update on the best spots in the Whitsundays where you might be able to swim with turtles, find the best coral reefs and fishing spots. We totally recommend Portland Roads for sailing adventures in the Whitsundays. Ian and Maryanne
