Unforgettable Birthday Bliss: Sailing, Smiles & Celebration on Magnetic Island! - Celebrated my birthday with a group of friends on board Pilgrim Magnetic Island. From the moment we stepped on the quay to the moment we stepped off at the end of our lunch time cruise, nothing was too much for the crew. Even before we arrived, we had all the information we needed to enable us to prepare. It was such a memorable day. I can’t thank the Pilgrim team enough. ….and it wasn’t just us. We were staying at Peppers resort and watched several parties coming off Pilgrim with the biggest smiles. Highly recommended.

Amazing day - This trip was amazing. We have been wanting to do this for a long time and it was better than we anticipated. The whole experience was fantastic. The scenery from the water was beautiful and because we were travelling slower than other tours you could appreciate it better. Lunch was beautifully presented and lovely quality. Nice little touches like the famous (and delicious) pumpkin chutney and local produce. It was great to be able to get in the water and have a swim. The drinks selection was great too. One of the best parts though, was the crew! Clayton and Jasper were fantastic. They were knowledgeable on their job but also the island in general. Attentive but not in your face. Sailing back was a treat and we appreciated the chance. All in all, we wish we hadn’t waited so long and will definitely become more regulars. It was the perfect treat we needed. Thank you Pilgrim

Best day out - Brilliant afternoon on the water, made so easy by Clayton and Jaspa. Clayton went above and beyond to give our granddaughters an opportunity to collect shells on the beach, which they loved. The boat is beautiful and the entire experience was easy, fun, and memorable.

Restful and stunning cruise with a delicious lunch and great snorkelling. - Just the perfect day out with Pilgrim today! The wind was down so we quickly made our way to one of the bays to swim and/or snorkel- amazing fish life and really easy snorkelling under the watchful eye of the skipper. The six of us were back on the boat and enjoying a delicious lunch full of local produce and with some lovely wines by the time one of the other tour operator arrived with hordes of snorkellers. The wind was up by the time we left and the trip back under sail was stunning. Thank you for an incredibly restful and beautiful escape!

The best for a Christmas Party in Townsville - This was the third staff Chrismas Day Off / Party we have spent sailing with Pilgrim Magnetic Island and we can't fault them. It was relaxing, fun and just the right amount of exciting. The service, drinks, food!👌
