About this beach

Whitehaven Beach, previously voted the World's Best Beach, is located in the Whitsundays, Queensland, Australia. It stands out as one of the most remote and unspoiled beaches in the world, stretching over 7 km. The beach is renowned for its incredibly fine sand, which consists of 98.9% pure silica and squeaks under your bare feet. The vivid turquoise waters contrast sharply with the snow-white sand, creating a stunning, almost abstract scene. Situated in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef and accessible only by boat, seaplane, or helicopter, Whitehaven Beach remains completely secluded and utterly pristine. The water at Whitehaven beach is very easy to enter, with calm waters and a sandy bottom. The ocean at Whitehaven beach is usually very calm, making it easy to relax in the water. It's never too crowded, making it very peaceful.
