Private yacht charters and sailing experiences

4 hours $1095 / 8 hours $1995

Try something different and go sailing on the waters of Geographe Bay in Australia’s South West. We have a range of options from short bay cruises with the dolphins, to weekend holidays at the beaches of Dunsborough or Busselton. Our yacht can accommodate up to 6 guests.

Anchor for lunch, or relax on the deck and soak up the sun and the sea air. Have a go at steering the yacht or take a swim off the swim platform. Whatever you choose, we can make the day a lot of fun and leave you with some great memories.

We can arrange full provisioning from simple sailors fare through to a delightful range of ship’s cuisine. On request we can also arrange a hostess to look after your needs.

What a great holiday change!! Please contact us on 0412 060 130 or email sailing@oceanwest.net.au

Weekend sailing trips in Geographe Bay – $795 per person (2 days / 1 night)

Join us for a fantastic weekend sailing adventure as we cruise along the WA coastline. This is an excellent chance to gain more sea miles and practice your navigation and boat handling skills or just to get away for the weekend and have fun sailing a beautiful yacht.

We depart Port Geographe Marina at 0900 on a Saturday morning and sail to Busselton and Geographe Bay. Take the helm and experience sailing an amazing Beneteau 41 ocean going cruising yacht. After a fun packed day we will spend the night on our Quindalup mooring or in Port Geographe marina before enjoying another fun day on the water on Sunday finishing back at the marina by 1600.

If you are new to sailing, this is a great way to see if the cruising life is for you! Your meals are included whilst onboard and Joeanne ensures that the menu is always delicious and made from fresh local ingredients. Accommodation is on a twin share basis in one of the luxurious cabins onboard. Please contact us on 0412 060 130 or email sailing@oceanwest.net.au

					  We chartered Oceanwest's Beneteau Oceanis 46, skippered by Nick for a sunset sail around Busselton Jetty. From the initial contact with Gary to book in the charter, we could tell... read more this was a highly professional operation compared to some of the experiences we've had with other organisations in the past which were haphazard. 

Starting at the Port Geographe Marina, we sailed out past the jetty and then alongside which was impressive given the shallow water and sand bars.

Nick is a very experienced sailor and he made sure that we were comfortable for the whole time by minimising the heeling the boat, leaving us to relax and take in the sights. We would definitely recommend going on a charter with Oceanwest, even taking advantage of a full day charter to see more of the area.
