Coral Coast Getaway – Airlie Beach & Willis Island

About this cruise

By January 16, 2027 you'll be ready for this. 6 nights out of Brisbane, visiting Airlie Beach, Yorkeys Knob and Willis Island, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Big cities, reef snorkelling, and New Zealand's green mountains. Genuinely varied. Roughly 7 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. When you're not ashore, Quantum Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Brisbane has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. While everyone else deals with the January cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 6-night sailing is a strong place to start.
