Tour Description
A Fantasea Three Island Cruise showcases two very different faces of the Whitsunday Islands. Apart from a visit to the spectacular Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island, you'll also enjoy the exciting resort attractions of Hamilton Island and Daydream Island. The resort islands are packed with shops and boutiques, restaurants, bars and exciting activities such as jet ski hire, bus tours and go-karting, giant chess, themed mini golf... or just enjoy a cocktail by the pool.
Whitehaven Beach is located on Whitsunday Island which is totally national park and undeveloped. The Whitsunday group of continental islands were formed when changing sea levels drowned a mountain range.
The Ngaro people, one of the earliest recorded Aboriginal groups in Australia, were seen by Cook while exploring the Whitsunday Passage. The “Island People” lived throughout the island chain known as the Whitsundays and the nearby mainland for hundreds of years.
During the 1860’s, Whitsunday Island was a source of building timber for Bowen and a sawmill was operating from what is today known as Sawmill Beach in Cid Harbour. In 1902 Whitsunday Island was declared a timber reserve and then further protection was offered in 1944 when it was given national park status.
In the 1960s sand was mined from Whitehaven Beach and shipped to Japan for glass making purposes due to its ultra fine texture – it is 99.89% pure quartz.
The Beach is now protected under the Whitsunday Plan of Management and is located in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.
Because it is a protected area, please ensure you take nothing away from the beach with you except photos and memories, and leave nothing behind but footprints. Please observe and enjoy the natural surroundings, but don’t interfere with the wildlife. The natural eco-system is fragile and as an eco tourism operator, we are responsible for ensuring that it remains as it is today, for future visitors to come and enjoy beautiful Whitehaven Beach - voted one of the top ten beaches in the world.
