Every year since my parents have owned (2001) their place on Shute Haven point I have without fail spent time in the Whitsundays.

Whether it was a weekend getaway to de-stress over uni exams or a full on three week relax-a-thon I've always managed to drum up some new business for the Whitsundays operators.

Every year without fail I organise a trip for family and friends to the great islands, at first it began with a road trip, with 10 friends taking shifts behind the wheel, the 2000 km journey become very much attainable. With age, came maturity and the desire to cover greater distances in less time, plainly to maximize relaxation potential.

Since it's conception many years ago we've had friends from the USA, United Kingdom, Israel, Italy, New Zealand and of course many New South Welshman to fill our spare beds. I'd say in the last eight years there's probably been close to 60 individuals tasting the delights of the turquoise views.
