Hook Island Resort
Hook Island is the second largest of the Whitsunday islands. The Resort is situated on the
South-Eastern corner of the Island and has a very relaxed, informal atmosphere. There is an underwater observatory worth a visit to the left of the moorings. This is not a good spot to anchor as swift running tides are a problem and you are required to pick up a mooring.

Daydream Island Resort
There is a small marina on the North-Eastern side of the island and five moorings are available just outside the marina area.

The island offers a large variety of activities and facilities, many are free of charge. No forward bookings for the marina or moorings - you are required to radio the resort for availability.
