The Location
Located in the Whitsunday region at the heart of the Southern Great Barrier Reef, Hamilton Island is one of Australia’s most spectacular and sought-after holiday destinations. The largest of 74 Whitsunday Islands, it is part of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and is close to world-famous Heart Reef and Whitehaven Beach. This aquatic playground is where most Whitsunday tour operators are based, with an enormous range of air, land and water-based activities on offer, plus there is a wide range of accommodation, restaurants and retail available. The island is also home to the iconic Walter Barda designed Hamilton Island Yacht Club, the 18-hole Hamilton Island Golf Club designed by the British world championship golfer, Peter Thomson and the renowned, highly awarded luxury resort, qualia.
Hamilton Island is more than a popular tourist destination. It’s also a thriving community, with a population of around 1500 permanent staff and residents with a school, a bank and a post office.
