Sail Safari
Welcome to Sail Safari
Calypso is undergoing a major upgrade & is unavailable for charter until July 2024
Sail Safari has been operating Sailing Charters on the Gippsland Lakes in Victoria for the past 25 years, offering a variety of experiences. From a full "learning to sail" adventure to a more relaxed canal cruise around the Paynesville estate.
The Victorian, Gippsland Lakes region of Paynesville is a comfortable 3.5 hour drive from Melbourne (also serviced by public transport), and is a delightful paradise for anyone remotely interested in boats, wildlife, photography or relaxation. It is simply perfect for relaxing in peaceful surroundings.
"Calypso" is a 34' fiberglass fractional rigged yacht. Designed by Robb Legg she features a drop keel (similar to that of a trailerable yacht) which enables Calypso to access many shallow and beautiful parts of the Gippsland Lakes.
The Skipper of "Calypso", Doug Haynes lives in Paynesville and brings to Sail Safari years of nautical experience and local knowledge to make your sailing adventure truly something to remember.
Group bookings are most welcome & we cater to backpackers, families, school & youth groups. Please contact us for costings & group package suggestions.
