Christmas – Hamilton Island Style!

Kristie Kaighin, owner and operator of Whitsunday Holidays says there’s a special kind of Christmas magic unique to Hamilton Island,

“Everyone really gets into the spirit of Christmas. It looks amazing with decorations, lights, and Christmas trees everywhere. Hamilton Island puts on a great festive program – there’s so much to do for children and adults.”

Highlights of the seasonal program include:

  • Christmas Eve – Carols by Candlelight held outdoors under the star-filled Whitsunday sky, with a special guest appearance by Santa Claus.
  • Hamilton Island Summer Festival – Featuring live entertainment at various venues across the island.
  • Daily Kids Activities – From sand castle competitions to mini golf, and indoor and outdoor movies, kids will love participating in the schedule of organised events.

Christmas Lunch on Hamilton Island – What’s on the Menu?

Staying in a Whitsunday Holidays holiday home gives the flexibility to either prepare your own meals in a fully-equipped kitchen, enjoy a BBQ on your entertaining deck, or dine at one of Hamilton Island’s quality restaurants.

“Guests are spoiled for choice when it comes to a Christmas feast,” says Kristie. “Suppliers like Whitsunday Provisioning and Fishi provide amazing seafood platters delivered direct to the island. Enjoying a seafood lunch overlooking the Whitsunday passage, followed by a dip in your own private pool is the quintessential Hamilton Island Christmas.”

For those who prefer to let someone else do the preparations, several of the Hamilton Island’s restaurants offer Christmas-themed luncheons or dinners with all the seasonal favourites on offer, as well as local seafood.

“We encourage people to book well in advance for both the seafood platters and restaurant reservations, as they are very popular. We can email guests directly with any information they need, and contact details.”
