South Whitehaven Beach Lookout Opened July 2019
In July 2019 the South Whitehaven Beach Lookout opened to the public, Consistently voted in the top 10 beaches in the world this 97% silica sand pure white beach is now available to see from above without the expense of a seaplane or helicopter!
.
Access to this platform starts from the southern end of Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island Queensland Australia; The walking track is approximately 1 km through Australian native bush and local rainforest. When you get to the top of the short 1km walk, the Whitsundays Islands National Park opens up before your eyes, and believe me this is pure eye candy.
On one side you will see the sparkling waters through the inlets in Chance Bay, on the other you will see 7 km of white pure silica sand stretching down Whitehaven Beach towards the northern hill inlet.

South Whitehaven Reviews For The New Lookout
Zigzag was THE BEST boat tour I’ve ever been on. Kayleigh is an absolute legend! Great sense of humour, kind, knowledgeable, professional and so passionate about the reef and making sure we all had an unforgettable experience. Her co-worker was really great as well (sorry can’t remember her name). The two snorkel stops were epic as was THE beach – whitehaven beach. It is well worth walking up to the look out point which gives you one of the best views you’ll ever see anywhere in the world. Simply mind-blowing. I won’t spoil the location of the last stop as it’s an amazing surprise and really finished off the day so perfectly. I cannot recommend zigzag highly enough – if you’re thinking of booking, do it! You won’t regret it x
We had a fantastic day out with Zigzag! Staff were wonderful and went out of their way to make our day as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. We loved snorkelling on the reef despite the cool water. We were all provided with wetsuits which definitely helped. Swimming at Whitehaven was a real highlight and the view from the lookout was spectacular! Great music, delicious lunch and an exhilarating boat ride! Would definitely recommend Zigzag!
