  • Overview

    Witness the largest mammal migration in the world.  Whale watching by the power of the wind, it's truly a magical experience to be able to switch the engine off and silently slice through the water with whales.

    Join the local dolphins sailing past some of the most glamorous homes of Queensland, then out through the seaway sailing towards the whale highway.  

    Enjoy a view most will never experience of the Gold Coast. Nestle amongst the bean bags and cushions or give a go at crewing and learn to put up a sail, grind a winch or steer a course on the helm as we have a go at tacking and jibbing.

    We like to sail in the usual calmer hours of the day making whale watching an easier experience. 

    The humpback whale was hunted to near extension in the 1960's.  Just over 100 individuals survived, we now see over 30000 pass the Coast every year, with these numbers we can virtually guarantee whale sightings.

    A group of us booked a sunset cruise to celebrate our lovely bride to be and ended up having such a wholesome evening together. We had the most beautiful sunset, followed by a perfect full moon. Captain Grant was very friendly and provided us with the best playlist, platter board, drinks and conversation! Would highly recommend for any occasion. Will definitely be back for whale season!

    This is an awesome full day cruise. Grant is extremely knowledgeable in regards to the sailing and info on the area. Very hands on with sailing the vessel if you want or just sit back and watch the crew do it all. Lunch was amazing as well. The reason behind the cruises and the boat for Veterans is very uplifting. Definitely a cruise well worth doing. Great work Grant, well done. Keep it up

    We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the Run Amuk cruise. The sunset was spectacular and the full moon was a bonus. Grant was friendly and kept us entertained. The snacks and drinks provided were delicious. This cruise was great value for money and we would definitely recommend to others (as it also supports a great cause).

    Definitely recommend this as a Must-do yachting experience. Skipper Grant and his friendly crew made sure our small group had a relaxing, safe and enjoyable sunset cruise on the Broadwater and beyond. Nothing was too much trouble and plenty of laughs were had. Drinks and food were plentiful and photo opportunities many. Importantly, the funds raised go towards supporting Defence Force Veterans through the Maritime Warriors Project. Thanks team!
