Whitsundays Accom...
On the Water
Luxurious cruises, crewed one-day or longer-term sailing adventures, skipper yourself (bareboating) adventures are just some of the ways to explore the Whitsundays. Travel in a racing yacht, a luxury catamaran or graceful tall ship.
You won't need a boat licence for bareboat cruising and you'll receive the necessary introductory training. You can provision the boat yourself or have it done so you're ready to set sail. For a change of pace, try oceanrafting or kayaking. Other specialist tours include whale watching, fishing and a huge range of day tours.
Under The Water
Explore the many island fringing reefs or head to the Great Barrier Reef where it is possible to snorkel or dive virtually every day. For novices, a resort or introductory dive under close supervision can be an easy step into this new world. This region harbours a diverse range of marine life and coral. Between June and September, giant humpback whales migrate up the coastline.
On The Land
Conway and Dryander National Parks provide a lush backdrop to the Coral Sea. Trek through ancient rainforest and cool off at Cedar Creek Falls.The Prosperine River is a major artery in the wetland system, a breeding ground for crocodiles and barramundi. Golfers won't be disappointed with courses at Laguna Quays Resort, Proserpine, Airlie Beach, South Molle and Lindeman Islands.
In The Air
Access the region via Whitsunday Coast Airport at Prosperine or Hamilton Island Airport. Whitsunday Airport, a hub for light aircraft, is only minutes from Airlie Beach. Let your imagination fly with a romantic helicopter ride to a deserted beach for a champagne picnic. Speed your heart rate with a 10,000ft tandem skydive or view the exquisite seascape by scenic flight or helicopter. There's parasailing or amphibious aircraft can pick you up from the coast or the deck of your charter yacht.
