Best time to visit Daydream Island

Daydream Island and its sister-islands of the Whitsunday Island group enjoys fantastic weather all year. The island has a tropical climate, which means hot summer days and warm, cool winters. Summer rains are not uncommon but are short lived and not enough to put a damper on your day. The best time to visit would be during spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November) to avoid the summer crowds and get the best value for your money. Please note that Daydream Island was hit by Cyclone Debbie in March 2017 and will only be reopened some time in 2018. Please check the news if planning a trip there.

Daydream Island is the perfect wedding and honeymoon location too. What better way to spend your special day than on a private island with a sea breeze through your hair and the ocean as your backdrop? The island is part of the Whitsunday Islands Group, and is one of seven that make up the cluster that can be found off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Though only one kilometre in length and 400m at its widest point, this destination has many secluded beaches, some wonderful eateries and plenty of water sport options to enjoy.

The island has two resorts, both which cater to guests all-year long and offer some fantastic activities such as snorkelling and scuba diving. One of the main attractions of the island though would have to be sailing, as the waters of the Great Barrier Reef are perfect for this sport.
