More Description

Cumberland Islands, an archipelago in the Great Barrier Reef, off the eastern coast of Queensland, Australia. The group comprises more than 70 inner continental islands (land, not coral), including Whitsunday, Lindeman, Brampton, Molle, Long, Hook, Dent, and Hayman.
This book is written for anyone wishing to immerse themselves in the deep and exciting history of the Whitsunday and Cumberland Islands of Australia as a visitor, local, or history enthusiast. Readers will not be disappointed with rich recounts of local anecdotes, legends, and tales, including inspiring photography and the personal touch of a local skipper as the author.
The book begins with the creation of the earth and its natural forms. It moves on to acknowledge all those who have discovered, passed through, been shipwrecked, pioneered, developed, and inspired the growth of the Whitsundays. Finally, we concluded with the development of the local town of Airlie Beach and the surrounding islands up to date. You won't find anything like this book.
