BEACH CLUB HOTEL

Hamilton Island enjoys relatively dry winters where the waters of the surrounding Great Barrier Reef are warm and ideal for snorkelling or diving.  During your stay, keep an eye out for the humpback whales that make their way to the warm waters of the Whitsundays from Antarctica to give birth to their calves from June to September.

Hamilton Island has so much to offer and your starting point for ideas as to how to spend your time starts here.
