Pilgrim Sailing is a sports club in Sydney that offers unforgettable experiences out on the water. Their aim is to showcase the delicious local produce, island knowledge, and the dreamy tropical paradise that is Sydney. They offer two main sailing experiences: a luxury 58-foot sailing yacht called Pilgrim and a small, fast boat called Sandy.
Pilgrim is a 58-foot luxury sailing yacht that provides the epitome of relaxation and indulgence. Guests can set sail and take in the breathtaking Magnetic Island coastline while enjoying unlimited organic wine, local beer, and a gourmet platter. With a limited number of guests per sail, Pilgrim ensures a personalised experience that allows guests to escape reality and enjoy a day they'll always remember.
Sandy is a 5. 2-metre Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) that offers immersive experiences both above and below the water. Guests can explore the remote and untouched parts of the island, with a selection of adventures to choose from. Each adventure comes with everything guests need, including a gourmet lunch, for a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
Pilgrim Sailing offers a range of best-selling experiences, including lunchtime cruises, sunset cruises, and Three Bays in Three Ways. During lunchtime cruises, guests can enjoy a sail, swim, and delicious lunch while taking in the stunning Magnetic Island coastline. Sunset cruises allow guests to watch the sunset while enjoying sundowners and a cheese platter. Three Bays in Three Ways is a private experience for couples or small groups, offering the opportunity to explore the island's hidden gems above and below the surface.
Pilgrim Magnetic Island is owned and operated by Paul and Clare Ley, who care about every aspect of guests' experiences and love to share their beautiful yacht, passion for sailing, and Magnetic Island's natural beauty.
The club is based at Nelly Bay, Magnetic Island, with pick up and drop off at Magnetic Island Marina. The meeting point is on the deck area next to the Boardwalk Restaurant at Peppers Blue on Blue Resort, just a short walk from the ferry terminal.
Pilgrim Sailing also provides other useful links and information, such as a pumpkin chutney recipe, the Captains Club rewards programme, the Sailing Academy, and frequently asked questions. They prioritise accessibility and provide information on Covid-19 protocols and updates.
Overall, Pilgrim Sailing offers a unique and unforgettable experience for those looking to relax, indulge, and explore the beauty of Sydney's waters.
