Romantic Escapes

A proposal, an anniversary or a quiet day for two. Sha Meduza is ideal for couples and small groups, with sheltered bays only minutes from Newport and an overnight stay for up to seven if you want to make a night of it.

What Clients Say

This tailor made charter experience was not only great value but an experience we will truely remember for the rest of our lives.

I booked a day sailing with Paul as part of a surprise engagement. In the lead up and planning Paul was extremely helpful and accomodating to my needs and provided a high level of support and flexibility. Paul is very passionate about sailing and loves what he does, this shows through on the water as he provides as very personalised service while maintaining a good degree of professionalism. On the day the experience went very smoothly and Paul was again only happy to accomodate our needs. This tailor made charter experience was not only great value but an experience we will truely remember for the rest of our lives, we look forward to sailing with Paul again in the future and can not recommend him highly enough!

Best birthday weekend ever!

We did a bareboat charter on Paul's Hunter 38 for the weekend and it was the most wonderful experience and fabulous birthday celebration! The boat is beautifully kept and Paul was very helpful and friendly. The weather and sailing conditions were perfect. Anchoring off pretty beaches and taking the rowing boat to shore was also lots of fun! We would love to return and charter Paul's boat again; can't wait to recommend this to all of our friends; thanks again Paul.

What an amazing day

Paul is a fantastic host. His Hunter 38 yacht was the perfect choice for our family of four to spend the day on. We had the sails up, stopped off on a beach and swam in a bay. Paul shared some interesting local insights and history. We'd definitely hire again from Sailing Pittwater with no hesitation.
