1. Add a tick to that bucket list and warm up on the world's whitest sand on Whitehaven Beach, listed as the No. 1 Beach in Australia and the South Pacific, and No. 12 Beach in the World in the TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Beaches Awards (2016).
2. Feel the solitude of the reef and camp out under the stars on a Reef Sleep with Cruise Whitsundays.
3. Set sail for the 74 islands of the Whitsundays on a bareboat charter.
4. Visit the 'wild side' of the Whitsunday Islands on the exhilarating Ocean Rafting. The vessels were originally designed and built as rescue crafts and are driven by 450hp engines.
