Holiday in the Whitsundays, Queensland!
Captain James Cook, then a lieutenant in the Royal Navy, passed through these islands in 1770, on his first voyage around the world in the Endeavour.
'Indeed the whole passage is one continued safe harbour,' he noted on the morning of Sunday, 3 June. It was Whitsun, the seventh Sunday after Easter and the feast of Pentecost, so Cook named it the Whitsunday Passage and one of what he called the Cumberland Islands -- Pentecost Island.
With over 90 islands stretching from Bowen in the north to the Repulse Islands in the south, the Whitsunday group is part of Australia’s largest offshore island chain, known as the Cumberland group. All the islands and their surrounding waters (collectively known as 'the Whitsundays') have international protection as part of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. In addition, some islands have been declared national parks by the Queensland Government.
