The Whitsundays are a series of 74 breathtaking tropical islands that are located between the northeast coast of Queensland, and the Great Barrier Reef. The islands are rich in coral and marine life. There are many things to do in the region, such as diving or snorkeling into the crystal waters, crocodile safaris, as well as exploring the popular beaches on a cruise ship.

  1. Definitely the prettiest place I’ve seen in my whole life. We had a whole island for ourselves. We had the best time hiking, snorkelling and chilling on the beach! Amazing experience!
