    WHYWHY INVESTINVEST inin thethe WhitsundaysWhitsundays Whitsunday Region Profile Why invest in the Whitsundays Location Airlie Beach is just one square kilometre of ultimate real estate that is the most exclusive waterfront lifestyle precinct on the planet. With the township book ended by two world class marinas and appointed with a range of cosmopolitan dining and fashion options, the Airlie Beach lifestyle is the perfect foundation. The township is well connected to the 74 Whitsunday Islands, 8 of which are resort islands and the remaining islands are protected National Parks. More than half of the 2600km2 Shire is classified as National Park, ensuring the retention of the area’s natural beauty. Located just 25km inland is Proserpine, home to the region’s hospital, railway station, sugar mill and primary airport. Bowen,situated on the north-eastern coast of the region, is known for its award winning beaches and delicious mangoes. Finally Collinsville, found 87km south-west of Bowen, lies within the resource rich Bowen Basin and is home to several mines. Quality of Life The results of an extensive survey conducted by Tourism and Events Queensland in 2013 revealed that 92% of residents love living here and 58% of residents would not live anywhere else. More than 85% of residents were born elsewhere in Australia, and more than 60% of residents stay for 10 years or more after relocating to the area. Of the residents surveyed, a large majority identified that the tourism industry results in many positive impacts for the area, including more interesting things to do, employment opportunities, events and festivals, improved facilities, increased local pride and greater cultural diversity.

  • Product Update
    Hello valued trade partners, Sending you some warm sunshine from the Whitsundays, which is currently experiencing 24 degrees Celsius winter days, with clear blue skies and tropical turquoise waters. Tourism Whitsundays would like to take the opportunity to thank you all for your ongoing support over the past few months. Your commitment and assistance to the Whitsundays is greatly appreciated. The Whitsundays truly shines in winter, with the region attracting humpback whales, who head north to give birth in the warm tropical waters. Sighting these majestic mammals and their calves is a memorable, awe-inspiring experience and one that people talk about for many years afterwards. It is possible to experience a whale encounter in the Whitsundays at any time from July through to September – some come as early as late June – and many passengers on sailing vessels and day trips have this unexpected delight while out on the water. There is no better place than the Whitsundays to escape the winter blues! Should you have any questions about the region or if you would like to talk to the team about future trade partnerships, then please reach out to us here at Tourism Whitsundays. We look forward to delivering an unforgettable Whitsundays experience to your clients. Warm Whitsunday wishes, Tourism Whitsundays Trade Team Product Update New Boutique Hotel + Bar & Grill coming soon to the Whitsundays - Freedom Shores + Northerlies Beach Bar & Grill Freedom Shores has been designed to capture the natural surrounds of the beach, water and lush Whitsundays tropical forests.

Silicic- dominated LIPs, such as the Whitsunday Volcanic Province of NE Australia, are being increasingly recognised in the rock record. These silicic LIPs are consistent in being: (1) volumetrically dominated by ignimbrite; (2) active over prolonged periods (40–50 m.y.), based on available age data; and (3) spatially and temporally associated with plate break-up. This silicic- dominated LIP, related to the break-up of eastern continental Gondwana, is also significant for being the source of Ͼ 1:4 × 106 km3 of coeval volcanogenic sediment preserved in adjacent sedimentary basins of eastern Australia. The Whitsunday Volcanic Province is volumetrically dominated by medium- to high-grade, dacitic to rhyolitic lithic ignimbrites. Individual ignimbrite units are commonly between 10 and 100 m thick, and the ignimbrite-dominated sequences exceed 1 km in thickness.
