Fantastic Day

We had a great day on Hamilton Island. Having travelled in June it meant the cruise over was at sunrise and the cruise back was at sunset. Buffett breakfast on the island was a great way to start the day and the 'picnic lunch' provided was substantial. Plenty of things to do on the island throughout the day. Certainly great value for money. This was by far the highlight of our time in the Whitsundays.
