Explore kaleidoscopic fringing reefs and diverse coral gardens in secluded moorings as your experienced skipper takes you to the best-kept secrets of the Great Barrier Reef. Check out spots like Mantaray Bay to rub shoulders with giant trevallies and the dazzling Maori Wrasse. Keep your eyes open for green sea turtles, clownfish and giant clams too as you delve into the flourishing reef! Enjoy the use of wetsuits and snorkelling gear included in your Powerplay experience. |

Whitehaven BeachExperience the utter bliss of Whitehaven Beach as your crew takes you out to these dreamy shores. With sands made up of 98% silica, ancient currents have carried some of the whitest, softest sands in the world to this slice of heaven! Take a dip in the sparkling, crystal bays, venture to the secluded Betty’s Beach and take a stroll down these incredible shores as you immerse yourself in a true island paradise. |
|
|
Hill Inlet LookoutGet ready to let your jaw drop as you witness the view of the ever-changing Hill Inlet! Gaze out from a variety of spacious viewing platforms to the swirling sands of Whitsunday Island; where turquoise waters and creamy white sands intertwine. Adventure up on a short, scenic bushwalk to this natural, dazzling wonder, and don’t forget to try and spot the stingrays and even dolphins enjoying the azure waters below! |

Stand-up PaddleboardsA fun and active way to explore the reef, get adventurous with Powerplay’s stand-up paddleboards (SUPs). Cruise over bustling reefs and pristine waters in secluded inlets with your friends for an assured laugh! Whether you’re a SUP pro or a total beginner, this immersive activity allows you to turn the Whitsunday Islands into your playground as a fun one for everybody! |

Heated JacuzziAn absolute treat after an adventure-filled day at sea, Powerplay offers a state-of-the-art, on-deck jacuzzi! Warm-up after an ocean dip, grab a drink and watch the sunset or stargaze amongst excellent company with the luxurious perk. Truly relax, unwind and take in the beauty of the rolling Whitsunday Islands in this heated, jet-bubble spa. Or, if you prefer a dry alternative to jacuzzi-soaking, stretch out under the stars in the bow trampoline nets and listen to the water gently moving beneath you. |
|
|
Blue LightsAs the sun goes down and the stars come out, your Powerplay crew will turn on the underwater aft blue lights for some completely out-of-this-world evening entertainment. As the gentle hues attract an abundance of marinelife, curious creatures such as trevallies, batfish, sharks and even dolphins are known to come and visit! The lights invite small baitfish and squid, whose presence then draws in bigger marinelife. Witness the exceptional interactions of beautiful creatures within the Great Barrier Reef like never before! |

The weather was not great for our time on the Powerplay, but we really enjoyed the other passengers and had a great time! Our skipper was a bit intense and didn’t have great knowledge of some of the mechanical things (generator, motor, etc) but was still a good time.
