| Whitsunday Sailing | | | The Whitsunday Charter Boat Industry Association | | | The Whitsunday Charter Boat Industry Association (WCBIA) is the peak industry body representing Charter Boat Operations in the Whitsundays.
More than marine tourism operators, WCBIA members are proud to say we are actively involved in Whitsundays research, training and awareness activities that enhance and protect the natural and cultural values of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Areas. Some of the Activities include: | Eye on the Reef | | Bleach Watch | | Crown of Thorns monitoring | | Reef & Islands Appreciation Courses | | Marine Safety Projects | | Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies | | Whitsunday Local Marine Advisory | | | | | |  |
| | | Climate Change | | | WCBIA operators and their crew continue to work directly with partners such as Maritime Safety Queensland (MSQ), Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA), Queensland Parks and Wildlife, Eco Tourism Australia to prepare for climate change. This is a hotly debated topic, but one which cannot be ignored if we want to protect the future of the marine park and it's diverse range of aquatic ecosystems. | |
