The Whitsundays is a truly diverse destination, with a holiday for everyone at every budget.

The Whitsundays is full of bucket-list-ticking landmarks and activities! Sinking your toes into the pure-white sand of Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island has to be one of them! The crystal-clear aqua waters and pristine silica sand of world-famous Whitehaven Beach stretches over seven kilometres along Whitsunday Island, the largest of the 74 islands in the Whitsunday group. Not to be missed is the short walk up to the lookout to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Hill Inlet. It defines nature at its best and provides an amazing sense of relaxation and escape.
