Whitsundays backpacking

There’s no greater example of the beauty of Australia’s immaculate than the Whitsunday Islands. This little slice of heaven consists of seventy-four islands located off of the coast of Queensland in between Brisbane and Cairns. The Whitsunday’s, as they are more commonly referred to, are a popular spot for backpackers looking to soak in some sun in a tropical paradise.

Whitehaven beach is a great place for backpackers to visit as it lives up to its name with some of the whitest sand to be found on the continent. You can go on a hike on the largest of the islands, Whitsunday Island, which brings you to a lookout point from which you can see for miles and find nothing but aqua blue water and white sand beaches.

Day Dream Island is a great place to stay with a resort that boasts a host of activities from sailing on catamarans to beach volleyball as well as a great bar scene after dark. To make your trip complete, you can easily take off from Day Dream for sailing and snorkeling trips to the other islands and out to the Great Barrier Reef to experience one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
