Sailing Adventure on a yacht cruising the WhitSunday Islands...3days bounty paradise snorkeling and relaxing

G'ddy mates! 38 degrees a tropical heat in Arlie Beach; a small town with a nice marina, lots of shops, restaurants, pubs and accomodation. From here my sailing trip will start early thursday morning...

The next three days I will be off on a Cruise with 2o other people on a classic Sail yacht named Enid. mainly relaxing on the yacht enjoying nice food and fellow sailing mates to talk to. Maybe I wil join a introduction dive but definitly go snorkeling the Whitsundays Paradise Islands cut off of normal life. This is the utmost change to explore the under water world of the Great Barrier Reef and is the highlight of my trip!
Resting on whitesand beaches on one of the 100 islands.. swimming with tropical fish and snorkeling through colorful coral....No Worries!!

But first some pix of the trip; got a lift from Hervey Bay to Arlie (12 hours drive...) together with Canadian and German safari mates from Fraser Island.
