Things to do on Long Island, Whitsundays, Queensland, Australia

What to do on Long Island, Whitsundays, Queensland, Australia?

Listed at 8 (up from 34) Long Island - Whitsundays

The relatively quiet Long Island is close to the mainland in the heart of the Whitsundays approximately 20 minutes from both Shute Harbour and Hamilton Island.

Long Island gets it unimaginative name by being 9km long and not very wide. In a few places, like Fish Bay and Palm Baym, the distance between the western and eastern shoreline is little more than 300 metres.

The Long to 'get away from it all' Island

Long Island tends to attract travellers looking to 'get away from it all' without having to sacrifice too many of life's modern conveniences.

The Mystery of Long Island

Watch out for evidence of a Spanish galleon which is rumoured to be lying off of the coast of Long Island. Sightings of an old timber ship, Aboriginal stories of a shipwrecked crew and a claim that coins have been washed up on a beach have created the beginnings of a myth.

Long Island Gift Shoppee?

Given a few more years and Long Island may well change its name to something a bit more Spanish. I'm already setting up a gift shoppee :-)

To get to Long Island you can catch a launch from Hamilton Island or Water Taxi from Shute Harbour.
