Visit Long Island Qld
Long Island is close to the mainland and one of the prettiest Whitsunday Islands. The Island is a national park with 13 kilometres of graded walking tracks across the Island, leading to beautiful secluded beaches and dense bush areas.
There are three established resorts on the Island.
Idyllic secluded retreat that offers perfect tranquillity to a small number of guests wanting to get away from it all. Relax under the palm trees on the white coral sand beach or spend the day waterskiing, parasailing, island hopping, cruising, playing tennis or exploring the twenty kilometres of bush walks through Long Island.
South Long Island Nature Lodge, located at the southern end of Long Island is a secluded island retreat catering for a maximum of ten guests with fine dining, premium Australian wines, and personalized service, in a friendly, homely atmosphere and a spectacular unspoilt natural environment.
The all inclusive tariff includes helicopter tours plus private yacht cruises to explore the coral gardens, deserted beaches and unique wildlife of the surrounding Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.
A perfect escape for couples and singles seeking a truly unique experience (no single surcharge applies). .
Palm and Happy Bay are the nearest safe anchorages to Shute Harbour and therefore a popular spot for yachties.
You can get there by flying direct to nearby Hamilton Island from most Australian cities and transfer to Long Island by water taxi or ferry. Or fly to Proserpine on the coast, travel by coach to Shute Harbour, and then by launch. Seaplanes are also available to Palm Bay from the Mainland.
