The Whitsundays have long been celebrated for their stunning landscapes, particularly their pristine beaches. It’s no surprise, then, that Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island has recently been named the best beach in the world for 2025 by Lonely Planet, beating out a host of international contenders.
With its iconic white silica sands stretching over 7km, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and breathtaking panoramic views, Whitehaven continues to captivate visitors from around the globe. This recognition marks yet another accolade for the beach, underscoring its unparalleled beauty.
Whitehaven Beach is not just stunning—it's a paradise for all kinds of activities! Whether you want to swim, relax in the sun, hike, camp, snap photos, try out water sports, or spot wildlife, there's something for everyone. It’s a picture-perfect destination for a beach day and offers breathtaking views at every turn.
Local Mayor Ry Collins took to Facebook to express his pride, calling the award a testament to just how extraordinary Whitehaven is.
He further congratulated everyone who contributed to supporting the recognition:
“Well done to those that contribute to supporting this recognition including our tourism operators and body, national parks officers and the broader community.”
