Oprahs Whitsundays


We had a wonderful visitor to our region recently and she caused quite a stir. Oprah Winfrey and her massive entourage had a whirlwind tour of The Wonder Down Under and this blog will show you what she experienced in the number one Wonder Down Under The Magnificent Whitsundays.

    We are going to show you where she stayed and what she experienced and what she didn't. Oprah had 8 days to tour the whole country and she spent 2 here.
    Oprah chose Qualia Resort on Hamilton Island to base herself and had a ball experiencing the island life mixing well with the locals and guests and certainly played her part in the excitement. Even our native animals got into the act with the koalas deciding it was time to show their more amorous side in front of The Queen of Talkshow.
    Qualia is one of Australia's top resorts and the price tag reflects that, but the setting is quite unique and perfect in every way.
    Oprah could not afford a few things due to time constraints this is where you can make the most of this most special part of the world. You can afford what Oprah couldn't, more time to experience what The Whitsundays and The Great Barrier Reef have to offer. You can stay at Qualia Hamilton Island or any of the other 8 Whitsunday Island Resorts, or you can stay with me on the biggest island in The Whitsundays, mainland Australia and do everything Oprah did plus much, much more. Airlie Beach is the perfect base for island exploring and accommodation to suit everyone from Oprah to simple tastes as myself.
    Lets have a look at what Oprah saw on her visit to Australia and The Whitsundays in particular.

    Oprah experienced the two must do's while visiting the nicest place in Australia. Firstly was the Great Barrier Reef and Heart Reef in particular. A scenic flight over this very special and romantic place can be the highlight of your travels anywhere. If the scenic flight is done from the mainland or Hamilton island you get the added bonus of seeing those Magnificent Whitsunday Islands and Whitehaven Beach from the air as well and they are the only sights that can rival Heart Reef from the air in anyway.
    Do a private scenic flight in a chopper or go with a small group on a seaplane and snorkel in the middle of The Great Barrier Reef with a group of less than ten other passengers.

     Lie back on the sun deck and sip champagne and wonder what Oprah is doing aahhh, it is a hard life.

    This has to be the nicest beach in the world Whitehaven Beach has been forming over the thousands of years and enduring various changes in sea level for one purpose only. To provide us with the mast pure, whitest sand in existence on the most majestic of islands with some of the most pristine, clear tropical waters in the world and guess what, she got it right.
    Six kilometres of silica, snow white sand that squeaks when you walk on it. To the northern end of the beach is Hill Inlet, the crown that sits perfectly on Whitehaven's Head. The lookout above Hill Inlet provides the most stunning views and would have to be one of the most photographed panoramas in the world.
    Everyone deserves to get here at least once in their lives and again it is easily achieved from any of the Whitsunday Island resorts or Airlie Beach and is a Must Do.
    Now here is the best bit. It is not often that you get to do something that the richest woman in the world couldn't. Spend as long as you want here. Oprah visited 2 islands and loved them imagine if she had the time to experience the other 70 odd, well you can.
    The other thing Oprah didn't have is Me. Let Libby and Bob (http://www.cruisewhitsundays.net/) show you our backyard in the way you want to see it. We can do it in a 2 day rush or a 2 week stroll, but you have to do it.
