then set sail into the blue, blue yonder. Crewed day and overnight
sailing vessels are an excellent way to explore the seventy-four
beautiful Whitsunday Islands.
Sailing in a Whitsunday
Paradise
Great food, great company
and often-comfortable accommodation accompanied with an unforgettable
experience could well provide the highlight of your trip. Depending
on the boat and tour you could find yourself hoisting the sails
or taking the helm or simply soaking up your surrounds.
7 (10) Whitehaven Beach
- Whitsundays
Whitehaven Beach is a
must Whitsunday thing to do.
Dazzling Whitehaven
Beach
The beach is a brilliant
carpet of white sand stretching over six kilometres in length. Be
prepared to be dazzled. The pristine expanse of 98% pure silica
sand gives the beach and surrounds a clean, fresh appearance of
very white sand fringed by brilliant blue water and lush tropical
islands.
8 (34) Long Island -
Whitsundays
The relatively
quiet Long Island is close to the mainland in the heart of the Whitsundays
approximately 20 minutes from both Shute Harbour and Hamilton Island.
Long Island gets it unimaginative name by being 9km long and not
very wide. In a few places, like Fish Bay and Palm Baym, the distance
between the western and eastern shoreline is little more than 300
metres.
The Long to 'get away
from it all' Island
Long Island tends to
attract travellers looking to 'get away from it all' without having
to sacrifice too many of life's modern conveniences.
