WHITSUNDAY CABLE CAR, AN AUSSIE-FIRST.
Introducing Australia’s first overwater cable carS.
An Australian-first, the Whitsunday Cable Car provides an unparalleled, accessible experience for all visitors. Suspended over the beautiful blue waters of the Whitsundays, this cable car will transport you directly from the mainland to Stone Island, without ever touching the water.
The Whitsunday Cable Car’s comfortable and picturesque journey turns Stone Island into the most uniquely accessible island in the Whitsundays.
This proposed project has been carefully designed and will stimulate the local tourism industry and boost the economy of the Bowen and Whitsunday regions. Secluded beaches, remote islands, and iconic local produce are the hallmark of the Whitsunday region and have untapped potential to draw visitors from far and wide to delight in this hidden gem. Sustainability is key and the cable car infrastructure has been designed to have the lowest possible environmental impact on the surrounding areas.

Whether you’re in the mood for relaxing on the beach or exploring the surrounds, Stone Island will keep you busy for days on end. Take in the spectacular ocean sunsets with a drink in hand on one of the cliffside viewing platforms, dive-in and snorkel the local reefs, or relax on the beach with a gourmet picnic hamper. Whatever your speed, Stone Island has it all.
