We had an amazing day exploring the Whitsundays with Mainstay sailing - we booked for 2 people and effectively had a private charter, we went to 2 great snorkel sites along beautiful empty beaches, away from other touristic boats. The captain and crew were really welcoming and knowledgeable and it was nice to observe their skills from up close
I recently completed a course with mainstay, it was the most fantastic 5 days on board the boat. The experience was invaluable! I highly recommend mainstay for anyone interested in leaning how to sail, Terence was an excellent instructor. We enjoyed an amazing time at Palm Bay resort, this made it so special! And the excellent food was definitely a highlight.
did my LVR and First aid refreasher with these fellas they are top notch great people lots of knowledge and quick responce time no mucking around. love it keep up the good work and thank you
Terrence was super helpful, went at my speed, and tailored the course to my needs. He also insisted I come back if I'm unsure of anything or have further questions. I'll definitely be making use of that offer.
I had a wonderful time with Mainstay Sailing in the beautiful Whitsundays. Real sailing not that commercial under motor 'sailing' that other operators tend to do now due to inexperienced trainers. The Mainstay team know their sailing, know their boats and they know the Whitsundays. The sailing itself was very informative, the locations spectacular and away from the crowds intentionally. The food was nice and adequate with plenty to go round. Don't get calluses on your hand sitting at home thinking about sailing around a tropical paradise, come get a few learning how to sail on the opalescent turquoise waters of the Whitsundays with the Mainstay.
Fantastic experience. The teaching was clear, practical, and confidence-building. I went in with no real idea what I was doing and came out feeling genuinely confident working around the boat, even got to skipper and run manoeuvres. Great instructors and a well-run operation — highly recommend.
