DESTINATION LOVE
OVERWATER
Suppose you ’ re looking for an easy group activity that embraces your destination and instantly kicks you into holiday mode . In that case , Sundowner Cruises which departs twice daily from Coral Sea Marina , is an Airlie Beach must-do . The purpose-built catamaran is ideal for all ages , making it a fabulous way for young and old to enjoy a water-based activity together . Soak up an at-sea perspective of the town and a spectacular sunset against the islands while enjoying a glass of bubbles or a beer . It ’ s also the perfect pre-dinner get-together !
PARTY TIME : Be sure to chat to the team about their private charters , making for a fabulous hens or bucks party option !
REGIONAL DELIGHTS
Undoubtedly , the sun , sea and sand are the main drawcards , but there ’ s more to this region than beaches and water-based adventures . We suggest gathering the gang and turning your compass west for a day of inland delights and activities – where you can mix and match to suit varied interests or explore as a group . Just 20 minutes inland , you ’ ll get a glimpse into country life in the historical sugar cane and cattle town of Proserpine , with its well-preserved buildings and iconic country pubs . Or , how about a bit of croc spotting while exploring the waterways and estuaries on the Proserpine River , followed by a pit-stop to Whitsunday Gold Coffee for a delicious bite to eat – and , of course , a fabulous coffee ! Golf enthusiasts can enjoy a hole in one at Proserpine Golf Course , conveniently located on the outskirts of town . We suggest a private charter with Whitsundays Transit – it ’ s an easy and convenient option with the bonus of your driver ’ s local knowledge to help tailor your trip to suit ! Of course , putting aside a little ‘ just-for-two ’ time is important amongst all your group activities . For a more intimate way to explore the region ’ s local gems , try a day tour with Whitsunday Hot Rod Tours . Is there anything cooler than traversing the countryside in an open-top 1928 Ford Tourer or head-turning 1949 Chevrolet Styleline ? We think not !
COUNTRY CHIC : Looking for an event venue set in a very natural , rustic setting with a stunning mountain backdrop ? Check out one of the region ’ s newest kids on the venue block ; The Creek Whitsundays , available for wedding hire .
