Near latitude 20 degrees south, Airlie Beach, Proserpine and the nearby Whitsunday Islands enjoy a tropical climate and lifestyle.[3] Each year the residents of Airlie Beach celebrate The Blessing of the Fleet on Whit Sunday or Pentecost Sunday.[4] HistoryThe name derived from the former town of Airlie and unbounded locality of Airlie Beach. Airlie was named following a request by the Lands Department in December 1935 for the Proserpine Shire Council to provide a name for a new sub-division on the coast.[1] It is almost certain that the town was named for the parish of Airlie, in Scotland, as the name was suggested by the chairman of the former Proserpine Shire Council, Robert Shepherd, who was born in nearby Montrose, Scotland. The official name was Airlie from 1936 until 1987, when it became Airlie Beach.[1] Airlie Beach Post Office opened on 2 November 1959.[5] In December 1956, 18 allotments were offered for auction as Perpetual Town Leases by the Department of Public Lands office. The map advertising the auction states the allotments were situated approximately 15 miles north-east of Proserpine.[6] PopulationAt the {{CensusAU|2016}}, the suburb of Airlie Beach itself had a population of 1,208 excluding Cannonvale. 50.9% of people were born in Australia. The next most common country of birth was England at 9.2%. 71.2% of people only spoke English at home. The most common response for religion was No Religion at 34.7% of the population.[2] BuskingBusking was made legal in June 2010 through an adopted draft policy created by Whitsunday Regional Council.[7][8][9][10]References1. ^1 2 {{cite QPN|46849|Airlie Beach |accessdate=14 March 2014}} 2. ^1 2 {{Census 2016 AUS|id=SSC30016|name=Airlie Beach (SSC)|accessdate=20 October 2018|quick=on}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.auinfo.com/airlie_beach_queensland_australia.html |title=Airlie Beach, Australia, climate, Information, rainfall, Map |work=Auinfo.com |accessdate=21 June 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130118105139/http://www.auinfo.com/airlie_beach_queensland_australia.html |archivedate=18 January 2013 }} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.whitsundaysailingclub.com.au/social/events/2014/blessing-fleet|title=Blessing of the Fleet|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=Whitsunday Sailing Club|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170910172548/http://www.whitsundaysailingclub.com.au/social/events/2014/blessing-fleet|archive-date=10 September 2017|dead-url=no|access-date=10 September 2017|df=dmy-all}} 5. ^{{Cite web | last = Premier Postal History | title = Post Office List | publisher = Premier Postal Auctions | url = https://www.premierpostal.com/cgi-bin/wsProd.sh/Viewpocdwrapper.p?SortBy=QLD&country= | accessdate = 10 May 2014 | deadurl = no | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20140515223132/http://www.premierpostal.com/cgi-bin/wsProd.sh/Viewpocdwrapper.p?SortBy=QLD&country= | archivedate = 15 May 2014 | df = dmy-all }} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://hdl.handle.net/10462/deriv/282100|title=Government sale of seaside allotments, to be offered at auction, as perpetual town leases, at the Land Office, Proserpine.1956 plan of allotments in Section 4, Town of Airlie, Parish of Conway, County of Herbert / drawn by the Survey Office ; A.J.
