Magnetic Island, Queensland
An idyllic holiday spot off the coast of Townsville, Magnetic Island is every bit the island oasis and just a short ferry ride away from the mainland. From the mini mokes for hire, to the endless palm-fringed beaches, snorkelling adventures, and hiking trails on offer, this is a holiday haven to rival all others.
Whether you are planning a family break or a romantic couples holiday, ‘Maggie’ offers it all. Its relaxed tropical lifestyle and access to the Great Barrier Reef make it the ideal place to relax and unwind. But do beware, North Queensland doesn’t hold back on the heat during summer so be prepared for plenty of water activities.
Where to stay: Lotus House, a private home, is considered the ultimate in top-end accommodation options on the island. Situated on the beautiful Nelly Bay beach, Pure Magnetic villa accommodation takes you away from the everyday and makes you focus on just one thing, the island landscape right in front of you.
