Northern Queensland is renowned as the home of the Great Barrier Reef and a tropical lifestyle that beckons visitors the world over. The warm waters, clear blue skies and pristine beaches of its islands create a scene that soothes all who visit them. Magnetic Island embodies all that makes this so special, yet manages to add something extra.

Townsville, the unofficial capital of North Queensland, allows easy access to world class facilities, without having them detract from the seclusion of the surroundings. The city's airport, the Breakwater Casino and the Great Barrier Reef Wonderland are just a 20 minute ferry ride away, although once on the island you wouldn't know it.

Magnetic Island's international four star resort adds a touch of civilisation to its natural surroundings. Set amidst lush sub-tropical landscaping and manicured lawns, the resort's 80 rooms and 16 family and deluxe suites capture the essence of island living. Open, breezy living areas and spacious verandas perfectly frame the surrounding tropical landscape, whilst the room's modern conveniences add the necessary creature comforts.

Those with a taste for the good life will appreciate Magnetic International Resort's international restaurant, and its chef's creations. Enjoy a moonlit dinner of freshly caught seafood and tropical fruits on the terrace, while gazing over the pool and surrounding tropical gardens. The perfect setting for countless romantic weddings.

When morning breaks at Magnetic Island, you can throw back the curtains and prepare for a day like no other. The combination of the resort's facilities and the island's natural wonders offers guests a vast array of activities to choose from.

The 16 beaches on the Island provide a perfect retreat for scuba diving, wind surfing, catamaraning or just laying on the beach. Venture just off shore, and you will find the Great Barrier Reef... a little further on, and you're in one of the most bountiful game fishing regions in the country. Away from the water, guests can choose from activities as diverse as a round of golf, horse or camel riding, or watching wildlife whilst bush walking in the National Park. Its not a matter of what of what you can do, it's a matter of finding the time to do it all.

The resort has 80 rooms, 8 family suites, 8 deluxe suites and all with kitchens, air conditioning and queen size beds. The facilities include an international restaurant, cocktail bar, function room, large fully equipped convention centre, 2 floodlit tennis courts, swimming pool, wading pool, childrens playground, garden wedding gazebo, and gym equipment.
