If you thinking for a nice vacation I would like tointroduce.
The Whitsunday Islands are a group of 74 islands that lieoff the coast of Queensland, Australia and form part of the Great Barrier Reef.
The islands are one of the most popular Australian tourist destinations. The
vast majority of islands are designated national parks and major attractions
include access to coral reefs for snorkelling and diving, pristine beaches,
especially Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island and clear aquamarine warm
waters. They are well connected by two major airports on Hamilton Island and
the mainland town of Proserpine. Over half a million visitors come to the
Whitsundays each year.
The name comes from Captain James Cook, the first European to navigate the east
coast of Australia, when he sailed here on 4 June in 1770. He was struck by the
area's beauty and named the island after the day he thought it was - "Whit
Sunday", the seventh Sunday after Easter, in the Christian calendar. It
later turned out his calendar was wrong, it was not Whit Sunday, but the name
has stuck. From looking around you can see many expensive yachts sailing about,
the playground for Sydney's rich and Queensland's property developers. For
those who are still saving for their own yacht, many different ferry companies
operate from Airlie to bring people on daytrips around the sights. A typical
daytrip might include a visit to Whitehaven beach, a trip to a part of reef for
some snorkelling and a prepared lunch. Most islands do not have places to stay,
since they are protected national parks. But for the more adventurous an
enormous choice of camping sites dot every island, where nobody else will come.
