A lovely walk up the hill leads to an incredible view over the amazing bay that is Whitehaven beach and Hill Inlet. It's an beautiful sight that changes daily with the flow of the river and the sea. It's another short walk to the beach itself. You have to see it if you're on the Aussie East Coast.

I would never believe that Hill Inlet was this amazing if I hadn't seen it for myself! The colors of the water and the swirling, white sand were like nothing I've ever seen or imagined before.

The beach is really one of the nicest, you need to walk there and when you get a first glimpse of the beach it's just awesome. Make sure you're early there.

Heard all the hype about Whitehaven, but my advice is wait for the sunshine- even the best beach in the world doesn't stack up in the rain!

We were lucky enough to see Hill Inlet on one it's truly amazing days! The weather and tide were perfect and it just looked absolutely beautiful! Definitely a must do for travellers if the weather is good! The bush walk was nice and a lot easier than expected which was nice. Really enjoyed my whole day on Whitsunday Island!

you cannot come to Airlie Beach and not go to this part. The view is amazing and pictures just do not do the inspiring mind blowing landscape that is a visual delight. Just so beautiful to look over to the oceans and be in this part of the world.
