However you choose to spend your time here, we can promise you it will become one of your fondest memories while in the Whitsundays.
Hill Inlet
Walk up to Hill Inlet Lookout for some of the greatest views in the Whitsundays and witness the famous swirling sands of Hill Inlet from above. The swirling sands below are created by the ever-changing currents and tides, meaning no two visits will ever be the same.
