Whitsundays - Platinum Charters

June - October 2010

The Whitsundays is a dreamy island escape providing the perfect environment to enjoy a fabulous and relaxing getaway.

Whitsunday Islands and the surrounding waters are part of the protected Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. Only eight of the 74 islands are inhabited, leaving the rest purely to nature. The area is known for its crystal clear waters, brilliant white sand beaches, spectacular coral reefs and majestic bush land. These prehistoric islands were well respected by the indigenous Ngaro people whose traces can still be explored today.

Cruising the Whistundays on board the Super Yacht Platinum takes in some of the most beautiful areas of the Whitsundays, such as the pure white silica sands of Whitehaven Beach, majestic landscape of Hook Island and spectacular snorkeling waters of Manta Ray Bay and Blue Pearl Bay. While basking in the sun and enjoying the stunning scenery you are treated to wonderful service and a fine culinary experience by the Platinum crew.
