Highlights
  • Coral Sea Marina - Unwind in the ambiance of a Whitsunday sunset, as you see in the evening from dusk to dark. Watch the lights of Airlie Beach while enjoying your favourite tipple from our fully licensed bar. Sundowner offers a relaxing social atmosphere for connecting to new people and sharing experiences.

Sundowner is a fully covered purpose built catamaran designed for socialising, and unlike a yacht, we have a flat surface and no trip hazards. There is ample room to move, and high heels are welcome.

Sundowner departs from Able Point Marina, Northern Village which is only a short walk from the main street of Airlie Beach. Abell Point Marina is a vibrant award winning marina which includes the award winning Hemmingways Restaurant with uninterrupted views across the marina and Sorrento’s Restaurant & Bar located alongside the boardwalk in the Northern Village.

We circumnavigate Pioneer Bay and as we have very little draft we are able are able to get up close and personal to the many points of interest, including Mandalay Point, Cannonvale Beach and a bit of Turtle spotting in Turtle Bay.

Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday islands provide the perfect back drop for our sunset cruises, as well as our other cruises including private charters for birthdays, corporate groups, weddings or any celebration.

Additional Information

Sundowner enjoys local popularity and has been in service for 16 years. It’s a purpose-built catamaran, constructed with a focus on social interactions, and, distinct from a yacht, it has a level deck and devoid of trip hazards. It delivers abundant space to roam, and high heels are not a problem.

The internal layout is ideal for mingling or cultivating romance. A lengthwise table at the center, flanked with chairs, is just right for relaxation and chatter or if it’s an intimate moment you seek with your significant other, opt for the side ottoman, presenting an impressive view of the islands as the sun disappears.

Sundowner runs a fully licensed bar from which you can buy extra drinks, choosing from 6 types of wine, 4 kinds of beer, and a range of basic spirits.

Fabulous sunset cruise experience - We had a wonderful time on this cruise - and our group aged between < 1 to > 80 years! Besides the incredible views and sunset, the team were fun and seem to love their jobs! The music, drinks and snacks were all great - couldn't fault this trip at all.

Sunset views from the best location - Easy to book and good directions to find the meeting point. Everything was as described in the literature, the boat was very stable with comfortable casual sitting, a bar, onboard toilet and plenty of room to move about to capture lovely pictures of the sunset. There was a welcome drink (bubbles) and some nibbles which were brought around for everyone to enjoy. A very enjoyable sunset viewing to start a weekend in paradise (The Whitsundays).

Great sunset cruise ! - We had a great time -- bubbles on arrival, nibbles during the trip -- great sunset views ... the only comment is that it is mostly for a younger party crowd - as retirees - we were somewhat out of place. Would recommend.
