Its winter in the
Whitsunday
Islands . The floods have gone, the sun is out and day time temperatures are in the low 30's and the nights are warm and pleasant. Get yourself up to the tropics, drop your towel by the lagoon and plan some diving and
sailing in the beautiful tropical waters. You may have read about cyclones and flooding but that usually applies more to the far North Queensland tropics than sub-tropical Airlie and the easy-going islands.
The following pages aim to give an informative and unbiased account of the area and activities that have made this area a must see stop for backpackers and an ideal destination for holidays and short-breaks.

With
Virgin
Blue and
Jet
Star offering direct
flights
to Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast airport)
Hamilton
Island and Mackay, it can be cheaper to fly than catch a Greyhound bus.
Backpacking
is very important to Airlie Beach and you can be sure of a steady stream
of international visitors adding to the colourful and vibrant atmosphere and
keeping
beer
prices to an absolute minimum
