Things To Do At Airlie Beach Lagoon
The Airlie Beach Lagoon is situated in a stunning oceanfront location in the heart of Airlie Beach.
It’s the perfect place for any visiting traveller to spend a ‘lazy day’ relaxing and exploring all that Airlie Beach has to offer—and did we mention it’s free?
Airlie Beach Lagoon Pool
Its prime location (parallel to the Main Street) makes it an ideal place to chill, swim, hang out and soak up the tropical sun’s rays. Built on a raised breakwater, you’ll have an excellent view out to the Coral Sea and Whitsunday Islands. No matter what time of the day you visit, you can enjoy a gorgeous sunrise or sunset, or the beautiful sparkling waves and hues of the sea.
Spend the morning swimming in the 4,300sqm lagoon and spend the afternoon sunbathing on the grassy bank or enjoying the shade of the surrounding trees. Sheltered seating areas have BBQ facilities for families looking to cook up some lunch, and change rooms and toilets offer plenty of amenities.
Airlie Beach Lagoon creates a safe environment from stingers all year round—so you can still enjoy swimming in the tropics on your amazing holiday! If you have little ones, they can enjoy a sheltered toddler’s wading pool, and there are lifeguards on duty all day long.
In between, you can also explore everything else Airlie Beach has to offer. Most activities, cafes and restaurants, and nightclubs are just a short walk away. Here are some other fun activities to include in your Airlie Beach Lagoon ‘lazy day’:
