We are blessed in The Whitsundays with a great range of island resort accommodation all within easy reach of the mainland. The resorts range from backpacker style dorm accommodation to magnificent 5 star resorts. The Whitsundays has rainforest fringed "eco-resorts", or resorts where partying is the norm, resorts that are set in intimate tranquil settings to resorts where their are plenty of people to mingle and share your experiences with, resorts where the family can enjoy themselves and of course they all offer you high quality daytrips to the Islands ( Whitehaven Beach ) and The Great Barrier Reef. We can build a package to suit everyone and can include as much or as little as you like. Why not combine an Airlie Beach/Island Resort stay or even a 2night sailing trip with a couple of days on an island to regain those land legs

Whitsunday Facts

 

The Mystery of Whitehaven Beach. Geologists generally agree that Whitehaven’s quartz-rich sand has not come from a local source, because rocks in the area do not contain large quantities of quartz. The most likely explanation is that the sand drifted north along the Queensland coast, carried by prevailing sea currents, millions of years ago. Trapped by rocks and headlands, some sand accumulated to form the dunes of Whitehaven Beach. Sea levels rose and fell around the dunes as ice ages came and went. Over time, impurities were leached from the sand by fresh water, leaving it the fine, white silica you see today. The most recent rise in sea levels, about 10,000 years ago, brought the sea to the foot of these dunes, creating Whitehaven Beach.
