One of the Whitsundays finest islands, Daydream boasts sparkling blue waters, pristine beaches and an endless list of entertainment for all ages and budgets. Those looking to soak up the sun will be thrilled by the faultless weather while more bold travellers can fill their itineraries with explorations of the island’s stunning surroundings.   

Located mid-way down the Queensland Coast, Daydream is situated in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, five kilometres off the main land. Sitting 150km north of Mackay and 300km south of Townsville, this slice of paradise is considered the most accessible of all the 74 Whitsunday Islands with regular tours to the neighboring islands. Just one kilometre long and half a kilometre wide, Daydream is a visual delight fringed by stunning beaches and luscious island vegetation.  

Home to a spectacular variety of native animals, Daydream Island is also a recognised national park. On land, be sure to look out for Australian wildlife such as lizards, wallabies and birds found in the island’s magnificent rainforests. For those wishing to make a splash, underwater escapades will lead you straight to some of the world’s most beautiful fish and striking coral. Turtle and reef shark sightings are also common around the islands.     

Known for its balmy summers and warm winters, Daydream is the ideal setting to enjoy a game of mini-golf or relax at the outdoor theatre. Adults and children alike will love the variety of activities to take you from soil to sea, including everything from fishing and diving to whale-watching and parasailing.  

With a warm sub-tropical climate, Daydream Island is the perfect destination for a beachside vacation with the maximum temperature ranging between 24C to 31C all year long.
