Emerging from the heart of the Great Barrier Reef are the awe-inspiring 74 tropical islands and the iconic landscapes of the Whitsundays.

The calm blue waters lap upon pristine and often secluded beaches of National Park covered islands with fringing coral reefs teaming with colourful marine wildlife.

Past this protective string of islands is the magnificent outer Great Barrier Reef where you can literally see the heart of this natural wonder, Heart Reef.

Whether you feel the soft sands between your toes as you walk along the white silica sands of Whitehaven Beach, snorkel with a Maori Wrasse or sail the Coral Sea, a holiday in the Whitsundays will leave you in awe – under, above and on the water.
