Welcome To Our Region
THE WHITSUNDAYS. EVERY TYPE OF SCENERY. The Whitsundays lie midway along the
Queensland
coast - a group of 74 Islands Bordered by the Great Barrier Reef and cradled by the calm and sheltered waters of the
Coral Sea
; a picturesque coastline of wooded peninsulas, sandy coves and welcoming holiday retreats.
There are so many ways to experience the Whitsundays - something for every taste and budget - and every visitor can be assured of a great holiday.
Discover the
Great Barrier Reef
, one of the world’s seven natural wonders, right here in the heart of the beautiful Whitsundays. Under it, in it, on it, above it - there are a myriad of ways to experience this magical wonder. Marvel in its delights from an under water perspective in a semi-submersible. Jump into the water and enjoy snorkelling or scuba diving around fringing reefs and coral gardens, spend the night on the reef on a boat or Reefsleep, or gain a bird’s-eye view from up above with a chartered helicopter or scenic seaplane tour.
However you choose to experience the Whitsundays, be sure to include a trip to
Whitehaven
Beach
, consistently voted one of the best beaches in the world. The spectacular white silica sands of this gorgeous location stretch on for seven kilometres. You will want to return to experience its beauty again.
