For 24 years, Wings Sailing Charters has been a well known tour company in Airlie Beach, remaining proudly family-owned and operated with Mike and Amy truly at the helm overseeing every detail.  

Over the past two decades, they have built a stellar reputation across the Whitsundays by delivering authentic, high-quality experiences on the water. Today, the business specializes in Private Skippered Overnight Holidays, daily Sail SUP & Snorkel Tours, and their popular Sunset Sail Tour.

“Being nominated as a finalist in the Overnight Crewed Sailing category is incredibly rewarding for us at Wings Sailing Charters.  

‍

“We are proud to be one of the few long-established, family-owned and operated tourism businesses in Airlie Beach. It is great to have that effort recognised particularly in such a competitive industry, as we are a much smaller operation these days, operating the one amazing vessel Wings III.

‍

“Winning an award would be such a great achievement for our team and a meaningful recognition of the experience we work hard to deliver every day. Wings Sailing Charters focuses on personalised service, offering premium quality experiences and a genuine connection with our guests, especially in today's AI-driven world.  

‍

“An award like this reinforces our commitment to excellence and highlights the value of locally owned tourism businesses. It is also an acknowledgement of our awesome crew past and present, and the effort they put into helping visitors create lifelong memories onboard our charters and our daily tours.”
