Had a great time on the British Defender. The crew were great hosts and the food was really good. We really enjoyed the snorkelling and Whitehaven Beach. Would definitely recommend, only thing make sure you bring enough alcohol if you want to drink and at night the boat generator was very loud.

Had an amazing 2 day 2 night tour through the Whitsunday Islands with ofcourse the absolute highlight, Whitehaven beach. The boat was the British Defender, airconditioning was perfect at night. The crew, Sean, Anita and Tony are a very nice combination of talent, skill, humour and enthusiasm. The meals were fantastic, didnt expect that on a sailing boat but that must be mostly because of the cooking skills of Anita. Thanks again and keep doing as you do! Even though it aint cheap, 5/5 from me! It was worth it.
