I Took Her Back to Where I Proposed | Anthem of the Seas Day 4 (Airlie Beach)
Day 4 aboard Anthem of the Seas brings us to our first of two days in Airlie Beach! So lets explore this wonderful Whitsundays location. Eight years ago to the week, Matt proposed to Deb on cruise to Airlie Beach. This week, we came back — on Anthem of the Seas — to walk the same streets, sit by the same marina, and see how much has changed. This was a tender port day, with Anthem anchored in the Whitsundays and cruise passengers tendering into Shute Harbour before transferring by bus into Airlie Beach. We explore the Airlie Beach markets, walk through town, find out what tours and activities are available for cruise passengers, and book two local experiences through Airlie Beach Tourism. For our first Airlie Beach adventure, we jump aboard a Just Tuk’n Around Tuk Tuk tour and explore more of Airlie Beach with local guide Stevie J. Later in the afternoon, we head back to Shute Harbour for a sunset glass-bottom boat tour with Pioneer Adventures, complete with bubbles, nibbles, coral viewing, fish spotting and a beautiful Whitsundays sunset. Then it is time for a night tender back to Anthem of the Seas, a late dinner in the Main Dining Room, dancing waiters and Caribbean Night onboard. Champagne, nibbles, coral viewing, a stunning Whitsundays sunset, a night tender back to Anthem, a very late Caribbean Night dinner in the main dining room, and one moment I'd been holding onto all day.
