Stretching through the sapphire blue waters of the Queensland coastline for over 2000 kilometres, the Great Barrier Reef is the most extensive coral reef system in the world. In close proximity to the Reef are the amazing Whitsunday Islands, a group of 74 islands, of which Hamilton Island is one of the largest. |

And we can organise it for you - we have a fully licensed travel agency dedicated to booking flights as well as accommodation. You can also fly to the mainland then catch a bus and a ferry - or even sail here yourself and stop for a few days in our 180 berth marina. |
