Whitsundays area
Bordered by The Great Barrier Reef and cradled by the calm waters of the Coral Sea, the Whitsundays lie midway along Australia’s Queensland Coast. It’s 74 islands – only eight of which are inhabited – are surrounded by one of the world’s seven natural wonders, the Great Barrier Reef.
The whitsundays are famous for the pristine pure white silica sand fringed by brilliant blue water and lush tropical islands, one of the jewels of the area being “Whitehaven Beach”. Whitehaven Beach stretches over nine kilometres , it’s recognised as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. No visit to the Whitsundays is complete without a trip to Whithaven!
Airlie Beach is the gateway of the Whitsundays, a colourful cosmopolitan and inviting holiday town. Airlie Beach is part of a picturesque peninsula that reaches out to the Whitsunday Passage and provides the ideal mainland base for holiday fun and adventure in the Whitsundays.
The “must do” : Bareboat charter, helicopter rides over the magical islands of the Whitsundays, snorkel and dive the Great Barrier reef, learn how to sail….
