The Platinum Crew Club delivers a vibrant calendar of events created exclusively for visiting superyacht crew.
These events give you the chance to relax, connect, and enjoy the very best of the Whitsundays while you are ashore. Every activity is designed to make your time at Coral Sea Marina more engaging, rewarding, and fun.
You can expect a mix of social, recreational, and community-focused experiences throughout the year. Popular highlights include sunset gatherings at the private beach cabana at Coral Sea Resort. Here crew come together to enjoy music, conversation, and spectacular views across the Whitsunday islands. Alternatively, our annual Crew Golf Day is always a hit! Get a team together to hit the green for a perfect mix of friendly competition and casual fun – pros and rookies welcome!
Beyond socialising, the calendar also includes crew excursions that showcase the natural beauty of the Whitsundays and the Great Barrier Reef. These adventures create lasting memories while giving crew the chance to see why the region is so highly regarded worldwide. Many activities also connect with the environment. Volunteering opportunities allow crew to give back, whether by supporting reef conservation, local community programs, or sustainability initiatives. These experiences provide purpose as well as enjoyment, leaving you with a sense of contribution during your time here.
The Platinum Crew Club focuses on building community as much as delivering experiences. Events create opportunities to meet fellow crew, share stories, and form lasting friendships within the superyacht network. No matter how long your stay, you can feel part of something bigger.
The easiest way to stay connected is through the Platinum Crew Club Facebook Group. Join today to see the full schedule, receive updates, and secure your spot at upcoming events. With something new happening every season, you will always find a reason to get involved.
