Experience The Paradise Of The Whitsunday Islands

The Whitsunday Islands may be the closest you get to paradise. Sitting silently off the Queensland coast, these 74 islands are amongst the world-famous Great Barrier Reef, and it would be a crime against the travel gods to not visit them. Whether you’re taking a holiday or travelling up the East Coast of Australia, give them your time and you’ll reap the rewards.

The islands offer something for everyone; for those that have money to splurge or need to hold tightly onto the purse strings, want to spend all their time in the beautiful blue waters or would prefer to venture deep into the jungle. For beach bums, Whitehaven Beach is the most famous stretch of sand in the Whitsundays. Seven kilometres of pristine silica sand against crystal clear aqua on Whitsunday Island make it the perfect destination to dip your feet into. Meanwhile, although snorkelling and scuba diving are prominent in many areas of the Whitsundays, Hook Island provides one of the finest experiences. The diversity of the coral in the fringing reefs is astonishing, and you can expect to meet a myriad of marine life including reef sharks at The Pinnacles and manta rays at Manta Ray Bay (surprisingly).

With 74 islands to choose from, island hopping is one of the most popular ways to experience the Whitsundays. Sailing the waters that cover the Great Barrier Reef, you can enjoy the relaxation of being amongst such natural beauty, before stepping off your boat and relaxing some more on impeccable islands! Completing activities by day and sleeping right on the water by night, island hopping offers one of the most thorough overall experiences of the Whitsundays.

The jump-off point for many tours of the Whitsundays is at Airlie Beach. The largest town in the Whitsundays region on the mainland, it is thriving with accommodation, eateries, entertainment, activities and tour companies.

Awesome Whitsundays provide island hopping, snorkelling, sailing and reefsleep experiences of the Whitsundays from one to five days. With great value packages available, the Whitsundays are available to everyone that wants to discover them.
