6 Day Tour of Australia - The Magic Tropics Tour
Relax and let the sun soak you in while you enjoy days of leisure on Long Island. Then head to shore and explore or do some white water rafting, a high-speed catamaran cruise, or just take in the local wildlife at the various nightclubs around town. Finish it all off with a visit to Rainforestation to watch traditional aboriginal dancers and learn how to throw a boomerang.
Trip Itinerary
Day 1: Whitsundays.
Time to meet up with your fellow travellers and crew on Long Island, one of the jewels of the Whitsundays. Resort (D)
Day 2: Whitsundays at Leisure
Your own ‘fantasy island.’ Two full days to enjoy the atmosphere and great amenities of Long Island. Feeling energetic? Why not go bushwalking, play tennis or beach volleyball, take to the water with a snorkel or a jet ski? Want to relax? Then unwind on the palm lined beach, have a massage, or sip cocktails on the bar verandah as you watch another perfect sunset. Resort
Or… Sail the Whitsundays
As an alternative to 2 days Island Resort stay, you can spend 2 days sailing the Whitsundays. Swim, snorkel, or laze your way around this tropical paradise, on board a Prosail flotilla yacht.
