Hamilton Island Race Week is one of the world’s most famous yachting events - and every year, it brings spectators and yachties from all around the globe to the Whitsundays for an exciting line up of on and offshore events. The event is the perfect combination of spectacular island racing and evening fun ashore. Set on Hamilton Island in the Whitsunday Islands, the race week spans 6 races around the island over 7 days, with a fun filled lay-day in the middle. With more than 200 yachts racing in sparking blue waters, filled with whales, turtles and dolphins, it’s is my favourite annual regatta.
