Create memories that will last a lifetime aboard South Passage

Step aboard South Passage and experience the magic of traditional sailing as she explores the stunning tropical waters off Cairns.

South Passage is a majestic 100-foot gaff-rigged schooner, combining the romance and character of classic sailing with the advantages of modern technology. She offers a truly unforgettable day on the water, whether you’re keen to get involved or simply relax and soak up the scenery.

You’re welcome to do as much—or as little—as you like. Jump in and haul on the ropes to hoist the sails, take the wheel (with the skipper’s permission and supervision) and help guide this magnificent vessel, or sit back with a drink in hand and watch the world sail by. Weather permitting, there may even be time to stop for a refreshing swim.
