10 jaw-dropping photographs of the Whitsundays

Lying on the northeast coast of Queensland, the Whitsunday Islands are a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and one of the real highlights of Australia.

The 74 islands that make up the Whitsundays are characterised by dense rainforest, winding hiking trails and white, sandy beaches, giving the region an iconic beauty.

Australian travel photographer Lisa Michele Burns captures this beauty in her photography, showcased in the gallery above, which features the best the Whitsunday Islands have to offer from deserted islands to gorgeous, sprawling stretches of coral.

To see all the photographs, scroll through the gallery above. If you’re as impressed as we are, you can also discover more of Lisa’s travel photography here.
