Hamilton Island Air run helicopter tours of the Great Barrier Reef by helicopter. If you are staying at Qualia resort they will come and collect you from the heliport in the grounds. The four-hour excursion whisks you over the Whitsunday Islands to Reefworld where you can snorkel along the reef and then fly back over the famous heart shaped coral formation and the white sands of Whitehaven Beach before landing back at Qualia. It is an incredible experience. For more visit http://www.tipsfortravellers.com
