The Airlie Beach Triathlon is now incorporated into the Airlie Beach Triathlon Festival. The Whitsunday Triathlon Club was formed in 1999 by a very small band of enthusiasts who immediately set about organizing a triathlon. The first event was so successful that it is now an annual event and acclaimed as the best triathlon in North Queensland, attracting competitors from all states including such names as Miles Stewart, Nicole Hackett, Melissa Ashton and Courtney Atkinson, to name but a few.
The main event is the PRD Airlie Beach Triathlon which is a Sprint distance (750/20/5). Triathletes of all ages and abilities, including professionals, converge on Airlie Beach from all states. Up to AUD20,000 in cash and prizes is a major draw card plus the friendly hospitality and scenic course, the event being dubbed the biggest and best on the coast.
The event incorporates the Coral Sea Resort Open Water Swim, Ergon Energy Junior Triathlon, PRD Airlie Beach Triathlon, Business Team Challenge, High School Team Challenge, Citibeach Beach Volleyball Challenge and a Sport Expo.
