For dazzling, tropical vacations
 It's got to be the Whitsundays

Australia has been called the Lucky Country for many reasons, great cities, the amazing outback, the Tasmanian wilderness and the Great Barrier Reef to name a few.

The Whitsundays however are unique, exotic and spectacularly beautiful .  

One of those rare, unforgetable places.
Just nature at her best.

One of the world's great romantic places for your exotic vacation. 

And there's lots of exotic getaways !

The Whitsundays boasts a diverse range of tropical island resorts, sapphire waters, colourful coral clays, bright, inviting beaches, safe anchorages and coves, and hundreds of inhabited and uninhabited islands to explore. It's a very romantic place. These are the Whitsunday Islands. What a great way to spend a vacation ! Whether you're seeking the simple pleasures of an island hideaway or the last word in creature comforts, the Whitsundays has an exotic vacation island just for you.

There's plenty of romantic places to choose from.

There's probably no better way than to explore the world's ultimate cruising region other than on your own boat - owned or rented. Discovering the Great Barrier Reef is one of life's must-dos and it's easily accessible from the mainland or islands. 

If your idea of perfect romantic places are balmy breezes and swaying palm trees, with warm water washing over cold, sun-starved skin, then the Whitsundays islands are just what the doctor ordered.

Dropping a line over the side to catch some fish, snorkelling, scuba diving, walking through a rainforest. It's all available in the exotic getaways of the Whitsundays. If the boat option - cuiser or yacht - seems a dream too far, then the resorts of the Whitsundays have something for everyone: luxury, five-star, arrive by helicopter island retreats, family resorts where even the parents can relax and, romantic and secluded hideways. There's also crewed private charter yachts to take you around to all the hotspots. Popping into a resort for dinner. Determining off which island or in which cove you'll anchor for the night. Watching the sun set.There's just so much to do in the Whitsundays.

The islands lie north east of Mackay in Queensland and, Airlie Beach is now the main land set-off point. There are also direct flights to Hamiliton Island from many of Australia's capital cities.

 The Whitsundays is located in central Queensland, approximately 1,100Km north of Brisbane and 600Km south of Cairns.
