Daydream Island


AddressDaydream Island
Queensland, Australia

Daydream Island is the closest of the 74 islands in the Whitsundays to the mainland shore at Airlie Beach. Daydream is extremely popular due to its close proximity to the mainland, natural beauty and variety of water activities available.

You’ll be able to snorkel directly off the beach to the fringing reef or go sea kayaking, water skiing or even windsurfing. There are also several walking tracks on the island for you to explore. The centre and highest point of the island is a small but dense jungle of tropical vegetation inhabited by parrots and tiny sunbirds.

Daydream Island Resort occupies the majority of the island and offers many activities and impressive facilities including an excellent mini-golf putt-putt course.

To get there you can fly direct to nearby Hamilton Island Great Barrier Reef Airport from most Australian cities and transfer to Daydream Island by ferry. Or fly into Proserpine/Whitsunday Coast Airport, travel by coach to Shute Harbour, and then by ferry over to Daydream Island.
