Airlie Beach

Airlie Beach is the gateway to the Whitsundays, Queenslands pristine 74 islands. It is a cosmopolitan and vibrant town filled with palm-fringed beaches, waterfront parks and alfresco dining restaurants.

Airlie Beach is the epitome of a beach town; youll instantly feel the carefree and relaxed attitude emanating from every space. Youll find it in the Airlie Beach Lagoon, a manmade saltwater swimming area surrounded by sand and grassy knolls. Youll find it in the beachside parks where afternoon barbeques proliferate and continue into the evening hours. And youll find it in the alfresco restaurants where fresh seafood overflows from every dish.

But once the sun sets on Airlie Beach, another ambiance embraces the town. Youll find a thriving energy exuding from the bars and nightclubs where backpackers and travellers party together well into the night. This energy is both contagious and irresistible, and often encourages travellers to stay longer than expected.
