Airlie Beach is almost slap bang in the centre of the Great Barrier Reef. Just across the ocean from the paradisical Whitsunday Islands, so benefiting from the same tropical weather, Airlie Beach is one of the get out points to get out on the Great Barrier Reef as well as the Whitsundays. There's a town, but the beach is one of those palm tree shaded, pale sanded, clear turquoise water jobbies.
