LUXURY YACHT CHARTERS

Hamilton Island

A Hamilton Island yacht charter combines direct island access with some of the shortest cruising distances to the beaches, islands and protected waters of the Whitsundays. From Hamilton Island Marina, private day charters and multi-day luxury yacht charters can explore Whitehaven Beach, Whitsunday Island, Hook Island and secluded anchorages throughout the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.  Hamilton Island is particularly well suited to guests who want to combine a private yacht experience with a luxury island stay. With its own airport, marina and resort facilities, guests can fly directly to the island and join their yacht without travelling via the mainland.

From relaxed days at Whitehaven Beach to snorkelling, diving, fishing, water sports, scenic flights and longer cruising itineraries, each charter can be shaped around the yacht, weather conditions and interests of your guests. YOTSPACE draws on its knowledge of the Whitsundays and luxury charter fleet to craft bespoke itineraries tailored for your individual charter.
