At 115ft Defender is a classic island trader vessel build entirely from timber. A massive deckspace gives you room to move around and to find your own personal sunbaking spot.
Built in Australia by Aussie shipbuilder George Frost, George has 22 ships to his credit and Defender is considered his best. During the warm weather you can choose from sleeping onboard Defender or on a Whitsunday Island beach in a twin share tent on an Whitsundays island.
A typical Whitsundays itinerary can include a day spent on Whitehaven Beach, a bush walk at Hill Inlet and dinner under the stars at Nara Inlet at Hook Island, a bush walk to see aboriginal rock art caves or a trip to Blue Pearl Bay on Hayman Island. Weather and tide conditions dictate destinations on each day.
Freshly prepared Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner is provided on Defender and a good variety of dishes is presented daily, special dietry requirements can be catered for with advance notice when booking. Defender does not serve alcohol so you are able to BYO (no glass please).
