Whitsunday Islands & Reef Experiences

Explore the World-Famous Whitsunday Islands
One of the biggest reasons to visit Airlie Beach is its incredible location.
Airlie Beach is a major departure point for tours exploring the spectacular Whitsunday Islands, Whitehaven Beach and the Great Barrier Reef, making it easy to experience a different adventure every day.
Rather than staying on one island, basing yourself in Airlie Beach gives you the freedom to explore the Whitsundays by day while returning each evening to a wide selection of restaurants, entertainment, shops and accommodation.
 
Popular experiences include:
  • Visiting the world-famous Whitehaven Beach
  • Walking to the breathtaking Hill Inlet Lookout
  • Snorkelling or diving on the Great Barrier Reef
  • Sailing amongst the Whitsunday Islands
  • Visiting Hamilton Island for the day
  • Cruising through the islands at sunset
  • Taking a scenic flight over Heart Reef and Whitehaven Beach

From relaxed sailing adventures and family-friendly day trips to high-speed boats and luxury cruises, there are experiences to suit almost every type of traveller.
