THE WHITSUNDAYS
Airlie Beach, the gateway to the Whitsundays, is humming constantly to the tune of party. Backpackers are tripping into town to embark on the mandatory island cruise, or simply cruise through the 
night in the glut of pubs, bars, clubs and cafes. Our dream yacht, sold in a brochure as a romantic tallship that has sailed seas and oceans, turns out to be a ‘fish boat’ that used to sail the Antarctic’s. Brrr :) The crew of the ‘fish boat’ consists of a comic skipper, a Mr Muscle diving instructor and a cook with 3-week cooking experience. But the ship can navigate, the intro dive and plenty of snorkeling goes without glitch, and the food exceeds all expectations. Except for a little sea-sickness and its after-effects after the 2-day-2-night sailing experience :D Alcohol? :) And the islands are a natural wonderland – a drowned landscape, these continental islands are the tips of mountains fringed with coral. Plenty of reef and plenty of fish everywhere as soon as you stick your mask and snorkel into the blue-green waters.
