Worthy of an Instagram moment and just a few nautical miles off the coast of Queensland, 74 islands carpeted in lush vegetation and fringed by idyllic sandy beaches emerge out of the turquoise Coral Sea. This magnificent archipelago, protected by the Great Barrier Reef and refreshed by a light breeze, offers ideal sailing, snorkelling and photo shooting opportunities. Whether discovered by sea or by air, the Whitsundays inevitably leave the onlooker speechless!
