Veuve Clicquot returns to Hayman Island
This winter, the Chasing The Sun experience brings moments of warmth, elegance, and celebration.
Throughout June and July, the iconic Maison de Champagne Veuve Clicquot returns to Hayman Island, transforming Aqua Bar into a sun-drenched, vibrant setting that reflects the Maison’s luminous art de vivre, spirit of sharing, and optimism.
During the day, guests are invited to enjoy the Rich, Rosé and Yellow Label cuvées by the pool, paired with bespoke dishes created by our Chef to elevate the experience. Highlights include a half-grilled crayfish salad and a grilled Spanish mackerel burger with tomato salsa, green mango slaw, crispy shallots, fries, and garden herb aioli.
As the sun sets, the experience continues into the evening with a final moment of indulgence, savouring Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label cuvée in the Pacific or at Bam Bam, as the day fades into golden light.
Key Highlights:
- A sun-drenched Veuve Clicquot takeover of Aqua Bar throughout June & July, featuring an exclusive food pairing experience created by our Chef, designed to complement each cuvée
- Sunset ritual moments with Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label at Pacific and Bam Bam, including a special sunset hour offer: $28 per glass from 4pm–5pm, with a bottle upgrade (purchase 4 glasses and receive a complimentary bottle upgrade)
Dom Pérignon & The Sea
An intimate evening on Hayman Island in partnership with Dom Pérignon
Some evenings are simply dinner. Others become stories you carry for a lifetime. Dom Pérignon & The Sea is an Incredible Occasion in the truest sense — a convergence of place, prestige and people that exists on 4 August, and never again.
A private residence on Hayman Island opens its doors to just eleven guests for a journey through time — four extraordinary Dom Pérignon vintages, each one a chapter, each one inseparable from the ocean that surrounds this place.
As the sun falls over the Coral Sea, guests will move through five courses drawn entirely from the waters at our doorstep. Spanner crab, Pacific oysters, hand-dived scallops and local coral trout — ingredients at the peak of their moment, paired with Dom Pérignon vintages at the peak of theirs.
The evening’s centrepiece is rare by any measure. Dom Pérignon P2 2008 represents the second life of an already legendary vintage — a Champagne that has spent nearly two decades in the cellar, reaching a depth and complexity that very few will ever experience. Only a handful of bottles exist in Australia. Several of them will be opened here, on this night, at this table.
Alongside it: the elegance of Vintage 2017, the luminous precision of Vintage 2015, and the singular beauty of Rosé 2009 — a progression that moves from freshness through texture to something approaching the profound.
Eleven seats. One night. Never to be repeated.
