Taste the Whitsundays

 

The romantic and one-of-a-kind Whitsunday island group in the Great Barrier Reef region of north Queensland has as much to offer on land, at the table, and in the water.

Indulging in delectable food and wine in gorgeous surrounds is a big part of the Whitsundays experience. It is all about fresh local seafood and the abundance of fresh regional produce that feature on the region’s menus, enjoyed against the backdrop of stunning scenery.



From unforgettable culinary journeys at the Whitsundays’ five star island resorts to the new contemporary dining scene of Airlie Beach and the abundance of fresh seafood in Bowen, the Whitsundays has got exciting new foodie delights to tantalise your taste buds and leave you longing for more.

Spanish tapas served with a view
 at Airlie’s hottest new tapas bar barcelona which recently opened its doors offering authentic Spanish tapas and priceless views over Abell Point Marina and the coastline beyond. barcelona is open for lunch and dinner and makes the perfect spot for a sundowner drink. The food is superb and served with a range of wines, a unique gin cocktail menu or non-alcoholic beverages.

 

Lazing at the Airlie Beach lagoon and need a break? Maybe you feel like dessert or you simply love chocolate – this is for you! The Chocolate Café is full of naughty treats from chocolate fondue to chocolate waffles. But wait, there is more – salads, pastries, pies too. And right next door is the Gelato Bar. So soak up the sun, satisfy your sweet tooth and people-watch.

Surrounded by lush agricultural land, with fields of sugar cane, tomatoes, mangoes, coffee, and the like, the Whitsunday region boasts plenty of fresh, local produce. Head to the Whitsunday Gold Coffee farm in Proserpine and enjoy a freshly roasted Whitsunday beans. The café is set amongst the lush green cane fields and coffee bean plantation and welcomes visitors seven days a week. Or you can stock up on the best local produce at the weekly markets in Airlie Beach, Bowen and fortnightly in Proserpine.
