A land of soothing breezes, sprawling islands and cocktails by the beach – the Whitsundays are a dream come true for happy couples across the world. While love birds flock to WAHI all year round, there is something extra special about making the trip for Valentine’s Day.
Forget about a last-minute gift or dinner at your local, and give your partner an experience that you will both remember for a lifetime. With the big day just around the corner, the WAHI team has put together our top five ideas to shower your significant other—or yourself—in love this year.
Make It a Date
While one of the island’s biggest drawcards is undoubtedly the beautiful landscape (we can’t argue with that), the world-famous destination also serves up an incredible selection of food. Take in the sea breeze as you enjoy the offerings from one of the world-class restaurants on the island. To read up on all the amazing restaurants available on the island head here.
Sail Into the Sunset
Nothing says romantic date like sailing into the sunset. And where better to make your dream date a reality than at one of the Seven Wonders of the World? Sip on a glass of bubbly while taking in the magical array of pinks, purples and oranges that swirl over the surrounding islands. It’s something that needs to be experienced to be truly appreciated.
The Spa
If this isn’t one for the indulgent lovers out there, we don’t know what is. The WAHI heated spa is located amongst our lush-landscaped gardens, which is the perfect place to unwind from a big day of exploring, or a tough day of drinking cocktails by the water. Open exclusively to WAHI guests, you’re guaranteed a peaceful ambience to chill out together.
Picnic on Catseye Beach
Whether it’s your first visit to the island or your hundredth, a picnic at Catseye Beach never gets old. There are plenty of restaurants just a short walk away offering takeaway menus that are brimming with flavour and variety. Or why not pick up your favourite fresh produce from the local IGA and prepare your own picnic basket in your fully-equipped WAHI kitchen. With the cool sea breeze, sand underfoot and the sounds of the sea lapping on the shore, it could be a scene from a romantic blockbuster.

Visit Whitehaven
Island hopping through the Whitsundays should be on everyone’s bucket list, and Whitehaven Beach is the most romantic pick of them all. From the glistening blue water to the sprawling white-sand beaches, it’s easy to see why this beach is regularly voted the best in the world. Lovers can splash out with a helicopter ride over Whitehaven or make their way over to the island by boat.
