Located at the base of the world-renowned Whitsunday Island Passage, 40km northeast of Mackay and 50km south of Hamilton Island, Brampton Island is the ideal haven for couples seeking a romantic escape. This large and beautiful National Park Island is surrounded by sparkling azure waters, twelve golden sandy beaches, coral gardens and an array of National Park walking and jogging tracks - each affording spectacular views or the perfect secluded beach for a romantic picnic.

With fewer rooms than many of the resorts at the nearby Whitsunday Group of islands, and with no day trippers to interrupt the peace and solitude, you will undoubtedly find a special place for you and your partner to be truly at one. To reconnect with your true self and your partner, we simply recommend you leave the kids at home! Brampton is all about fun, reward, romance, adventure or pure escapism.

Brampton has twelve beautiful beaches, with seven being easily accessible via the National Park walking trails. Just off shore is a diverse range of fringing reefs where you can discover an amazing array of marine life and soft and hard corals. After an adventure of snorkelling and exploring, treat yourself and your partner to a rejuvenating massage, facial, or body wrap in The Sea Spa.

Brampton has a rhythm of its own and there are activities to enjoy at every imaginable tempo - from fast and furious water sports and heart-thumping sports activities, to relaxing by the pool or enjoying a rejuvenating massage. As the sun sets, the fun continues and we invite you to join in the lively atmosphere of our theme nights and live entertainment.

The Brampton Island team is delighted to assist you with planning your days and arranging your activities. It's your choice to do it all or do nothing at all.
