National Parks & Camping
                    Camping in the Whitsundays is a very special back-to-nature experience.
             With rugged natural beauty, stunning views at every turn and an abundance of wildlife,
                                 you will feel rejuvenated, relaxed and at one.

     There are countless beautiful spots to camp in the
     Whitsundays. Whitsunday Island, the largest of the group,
     supports a population of rock-wallabies and from June to
     September, the Whitsundays are an important calving ground
     for migrating humpback whales, resulting in regular sightings.

     You can fish, snorkel and swim from the beach of many
     campsites and also explore the trails that zig-zag across the
     islands. Keep your eyes peeled for white-brown scrub wren,
     kookaburras, yellow-faced honey eaters, ospreys, herons
     and egrets.

     The Whitsunday Islands National Park protects 32 islands
     including Whitsunday Island with its world-renowned
     Whitehaven Beach, as well as Black, Hook and Langford Islands.

     The park is readily accessible by private or commercial boat
     from Airlie Beach or Shute Harbour and some commercial
     transfer companies drop off and collect campers. If travelling
     by private vessel, always take the weather and tidal influences
     into account.

     Facilities vary and are limited to toilets and/or picnic tables.
     Campers must be self-sufficient. Remember to take fresh
     water, a fuel stove for cooking and insect repellent. Open fires
     and generators are not permitted and please remember to
     take your rubbish home with you.

     Visitor numbers are limited to ensure a quality experience.
     You will need to book your site and purchase your permit in
     advance and display your camping permit tag prominently on
     your tent!
