Before we get you to our big stuff with the Whitsundays and the Great Barrier Reef, I will quick post about our morning trip to Magnetic Island.
On the Monday morning before we headed out of Townsville to Airlie Beach, we hopped on a ferry and headed to Magnetic Island for a few hours. "Maggie" is known for being the island that supposedly threw Captain Cook's compass off as he sailed past on his trek to the new land. It is now known for its military base remains from WWII, as well as its great walks, quaint villages, and koala inhabitants. We were there for only a few hours and had a couple of great walks that gave some nice views - no koalas though.
