SOLD BY RAY WHITE
Shute Harbour sits at the end of a peninsula on the Whitsunday Coast mainland, a lovely 10 minute drive from vibrant, cosmopolitan Airlie Beach. The small residential enclave is encompassed by the turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, an array of the 74 islands of the Whitsunday Island group and the hills and mountains of its mainland neighbours; the Conway Range National Park and Conservation Reserve. All making it a very rare and special place.

And short walks take you to several bush tracks to Coral Beach, The Beak or Mount Roper.
