Day 5

airlie beach - qld - australia

Arrival: 07:00 - Departure: 16:00

Airlie Beach is a town in the Whitsunday Region of Queensland, Australia. At the 2011 census, the town of Airlie Beach itself had a population of 7,868. Airlie Beach is one of several departure points for trips to the Great Barrier Reef. Lying close to latitude 20 degrees south, Airlie Beach, Proserpine and the nearby Whitsunday Islands enjoy a tropical climate and an easygoing lifestyle. The Whitsunday Islands, named by James Cook in 1770, are a sailor’s paradise. Cook named the islands because he believed he passed through the area on the Christian festival day of Whit Sunday. It is now widely accepted that he did not actually pass through on this date, as he failed to allow for what would later become the International Date Line, à la Phileas Fogg. Each year, the residents of Airlie Beach celebrate the Blessing of the Fleet on Whit Sunday, or Pentecost Sunday.
