Top Island Destinations;


  1. Whitsunday Islands in Queensland:

Some of the most famous beaches in the world are located in North Queensland, called the Whitsunday Islands. These beaches have sand as white as snow and water so turquoise you’ll think you’re in the Bahamas. Simply breathtaking, it isn’t hard to see why these islands are so popular and beautiful.


With accomodation around each island you can easily go back and forth between islands to enjoy all that they have to offer. The Australian Whitsunday Islands is definitely one place to holiday. Interested in a night cruise or day trips, they have it all. You can even hire boats to stay on during the days and nights.



  1. Fraser Island in Queensland

Fraser island is a stunning and breathtaking part of Queensland. With beaches and lakes galore, you can do everything from hiking to surfing on this amazing piece of paradise.


You have the option of getting there by boat or if you like 4 wheel driving then there is a barge that you can book to take your car over and drive on the beaches.  There are also great spots set up for camping along the stretches of beach.

With panoramic viewpoints around the Island, you will be blown away by the Australian beauty everywhere you look. Some of these views include Indian Head, a rocky outcrop on the island's easternmost tip, and the Cathedrals, a cliff famous for sculpted ribbons of coloured sand.


Fraser Island is also a camping and ecotourism destination, with amazing beaches and swimming sites at Lake McKenzie, Lake Wabby and other freshwater pools. There is something for everyone to enjoy at Fraser Island. We highly recommend a visit if you are planning on visiting Queensland and want to see all it has to offer.
