Every iconic Whitsundays holiday deserves an equally iconic send-off. For day ten, Isabella takes to the skies with Ocean Rafting for a bird’s-eye view of Heart Reef, Hill Inlet and Whitehaven Beach, before swapping the clouds for turquoise waters and a final day exploring the islands by boat.

From snorkelling vibrant coral reefs to sinking her toes into Whitehaven’s famous silica sand, it’s a greatest-hits tour of The Whitsundays - and proof that even after ten days, there’s always another reason to fall for this place.
