Our unique sailing catamaran offers a luxurious, small group experience like no other.  Complete with all the comforts and water toys you need for a fabulous morning out. 

Lying between Rottnest and Garden Islands, this A class nature reserve is a short 45-60 minute journey from Fremantle through the gentle waters of Cockburn Sound. An important haul out location for Australian Sea Lions and a myriad of sea birds as well as boasting crystal blue waters perfect for snorkeling and frolicking in the sun.  A large sheltered bay on the eastern side of Carnac provides a safe haven from the southwest wind and swell – you just might have to share it with some playful juvenile Sea Lions!  Note:  this is not a swimming with Sea Lions tour.


If the easterly is up no worries!  The western side of Carnac is an absolute delight with high limestone cliffs plunging into the water and a truly spectacular anchorage perfect for paddling the kayaks around. Bottlenose Dolphins are also very common in the area and with a shallow bottom and no noisy motors, Capella is able to get in close to shore.
