Whitehaven Beach

Whitehaven Beach is a 7-kilometre stretch of white silica sand on Whitsunday Island in the Whitsunday Region, Queensland, within Whitsunday Islands National Park and the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. Renowned for its 98% pure silica sand, turquoise waters and the swirling tidal patterns of Hill Inlet at its northern end, the undeveloped beach is accessible only by boat, seaplane or helicopter and is consistently ranked among Australia's most celebrated natural beaches.
