Should you wish to venture from your own piece of paradise, the popular town centre is only a short 10 minute drive away offering alfresco dining, great local boutiques and a picturesque swimming lagoon. If you are like most you will probably choose the option of heading to the islands whereby you can enjoy island resorts, stretches of white sandy beaches, the Great Barrier Reef and much more. So whether it snorkelling, sailing, diving, fishing or just soaking up the sun you enjoy, you’ll love living here in the Whitsundays.

Just across the bay is the new ‘Port of Airlie’ project, which has recently opened and boasts start of the art marina facilities. This exciting development means that the township is serviced by two world class marinas. Whilst development in Airlie Beach has boomed in the past decade, Mandalay Cove in its own secluded enclave is protected from hustle and bustle, as the site boundaries are guarded by both National Park and the Marine Park Authority of the Coral Sea.
