The Whitsundays are made up of 74 different islands. The area is sheltered by the Great Barrier Reef so the waters are perfect for sailing. One of the “must do” items when in Australia is to do sailing cruise to the Whitsundays. My cruise was three days and two nights although I wouldn’t really call it three full days. We left at noon on Monday and returned at 10:30 AM on Wednesday. It was a great time though. My boat offered scuba diving so I decided to do that and I ended up going three times. It was great because it was just the dive master and I and we had a great time. There were some recent cyclones so the visibility wasn’t great, but it was still beautiful.
My bed on the boat. Can you picture how eight people can fit into this room?
Whitehaven Beach is 7 km long and is best known for its white sand. There is actually quartz in the sand which is what makes it so white. The sand here is also some of the finest and silkiest sand in the world.
