Heron Island

WOW! Heron Island has to be the most beautiful island of the Whitsundays. 

(By the lovely Training and Development team)

Only a 1 hour flight from Brisbane to Gladstone Airport, you will be met for your short coach ride to the jetty where your modern launch awaits for your 2 hour ride to Heron Island.

However, for the most spectacular ride ever, upgrade to the 30 min helicopter ride.  This isn’t just a transfer this is one of the most amazing flights you will experience anywhere in the world.  Arrive like a Rock Star just as Corina our Sydney Infinity Holidays trainer did below:

Travellers come from the world over to experience all that Heron has to offer including the spectacular diving, snorkelling and of course baby turtles! Guests staying at the resort varied from Gladstone families over for the weekend, University study groups and honeymoon couples.  The island is all about relaxation and getting back to nature with no phone reception or tv you can really get away from everything.  For those starved of news from the outside world there is wi-fi in the bar at a small charge of $3 per 15 minutes and a flat screen TV .   Cocktail hour is from 5pm to 6pm.  With all of your meals included it is a stress free holiday.

The Heron Beachfront Suites offers a spacious relaxing environment as you relax and listen to the waves roll in only metres from your balcony or patio.

Our team were lucky enough to enjoy the reef without getting wet on the semi-submersible coral viewing cruises, with our naturalist guide providing commentary.  We saw sharks, turtles, stingrays and every type of fish possible!

Once you have exhausted yourself with reef walks, snorkelling, the semi-submersible, star gazing, learning about the Island and the eco system you can still find time to watch the beautiful sunsets with a cocktail in hand or find a quieter spot to relax and contemplate life...
