LUXURY superyacht M.Y. ‘Sea Raes’ is launching in the Whitsundays, promising an experience that ‘seamlessly blends relaxation and exploration’.
The experience offers everything from champagne dinners to onboard massages and wellness experiences.
To celebrate its arrival, Sea Raes has unveiled a new collection of all-inclusive charter packages, available July-October, designed to showcase the best of the Whitsundays.
With itineraries highlighting Whitehaven Beach, Hill Inlet Lookout, and the Great Barrier Reef, guests are offered the chance to explore the Whitsundays with the signature hospitality and style of Raes on Wategos.
Sea Raes’ all-inclusive charters deliver a bespoke experience that blends relaxation, adventure, and world-class dining.
Now open for bookings, the packages are available for one, three, and five-night charters, with additional options for day charters and longer voyages.
They include breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus curated by Raes executive chef Jason Saxby, with the option to dine on-board or beachside, alongside premium beverages including cocktails and champagne.
Guests also enjoy return transfers, personalised concierge service, guided hikes through Hamilton Island, South Molle Island, and Whitsunday Peak, as well as access to watersport activities including jet skiing, snorkelling, and stand-up paddleboarding.
For those seeking an even more elevated experience, optional add-ons include wine and whisky tastings, deep-sea fishing and diving experiences, private live music performances, golf experiences, helicopter tours and massages.
Other highlights include a champagne picnic at Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet Lookout, and special guest residencies featuring celebrated chefs from the Northern Rivers region.
Following an extensive refit by Chapman Yachting, including a newly restored sundeck designed to enhance the guest experience, ‘Sea Raes’ offers a seamless blend of style and comfort across three beautifully appointed levels.
With an impressive 101ft tri-deck design and interiors by renowned designer Tamsin Johnson, Sea Raes accommodates up to eight guests for overnight stays and up to 30 for day charters.
Guests can indulge in curated menus by Raes’ two-hatted executive chef, Jason Saxby, showcasing sustainably sourced local ingredients.
Each dining experience is tailored to individual preferences, whether it’s breakfast alfresco, lunch on the top deck, aperitivo at sunset, or dessert paired with a movie in the saloon.
Menu highlights include oysters with a finger lime mignonette; salt-baked snapper with seaweed and lemon myrtle crust; wagyu carpaccio with anchovy, mustard greens and pickled onion; and bay lobster alla catalana with heirloom tomatoes.
“Sea Raes is an expression of Raes signature hospitality, now available for charter in one of the world’s most spectacular settings,” Raes general manager Marty McCaig said.
“We have curated an experience that seamlessly blends relaxation and exploration, offering everything from champagne dinners to onboard massages and wellness experiences. Our goal is to create a journey that is as breathtaking as the destination itself.”
Sea Raes is also available for bespoke day charters, perfect for celebratory events, long lunches, or sunset cocktail gatherings on the water.
Day charters accommodate up to 30 guests and offer tailored dining experiences, as well as access to the yacht’s premium beverage selection and watersport amenities.
Sea Raes bookings for the Whitsundays season are now open, with packages available throughout July to October.
